What Lionel Messi Told Sergio Ramos During The Match

Real Madrid beat Barcelona 2-0 on the night, sealing a 5-1 aggregate victory over both legs, and the Barca players were visibly frustrated

Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos were involved in a foul-mouthed spat during Wednesday night's Spanish Super Cup second leg.

Real Madrid beat Barcelona 2-0 on the night, sealing a 5-1 aggregate victory over both legs, and the Barca players were visibly frustrated.

Their mood wasn't helped by Madrid captain Ramos, who took every opportunity to wind up his opponents.

At one point, Messi tried to get the ball off of Ramos to take a quick free-kick. The defender looked as though he was going to hand the Argentine the ball but, at the last moment, through it over his head instead.

With a look of sheer indignation on his face, Messi stared back at the opposing captain, before uttering the Spanish phrase 'La concha de tu madre' in his direction.

In English, it translates into the expletive-laden rant: 'Your mother's c***'.

The incident compounded a sorry night for Ernesto Valverde's side, who were beaten by goals from Marco Asensio and Karim Benzema.
