Messi Put Pressure On The Referee - Ramos

Barcelona finished the first half of Sunday's Clasico with ten men after Sergi Roberto was sent off, leaving the hosts livid and Sergio Ramos accusing
Lionel Messi of putting pressure on referee, Alejandro Hernandez Hernandez, during the half time break.

What followed was a number of decisions which infuriated Los Blancos, especially when Messi himself scored a goal after what appeared a clear foul by Luis Suarez on Raphael Varane.

 "Messi put pressure on the referee in the tunnel at half time," he explained in his post-match interview.

 "I don't know if there were cameras, and I don't know if he would have made other decisions in the second half.

"However, it's important to leave these things on the pitch, you have to show respect."
