I knew Pepe was dirty. But did he just added disgraceful divings to his resume? What a jewel, that Pepe.

Why is he/it a football player? he should get out already of the sport.

I think that subbing Lass was a mistake. Lass was shadowing Messi all game long, denying him space and preventing him from turning if he did receive the ball.

And of course you have the assist in the 76th minute - perhaps if Lass was still there it wouldn't have happened.

Yeah that was kind of a weird sub. I guess mou wanted to go for the win.

He should have swapped özil with ronaldo, the dude disappeared when he was needed the most.

Funny how we all agree on the Lass sub, but I'd probably subbed Pepe for Ozil.

@Twisted. Not sure how much you can blame on "clumsy" I've seen Nigel do some pretty outrageous stuff, but true at least he can still be called a football player unlike Pepe.

He's more portuguese than he is brazilian. He came to Portugal when he was 16 years old, and it's married to a portuguese girl. Altough he was born in brazil, it's not your normal naturalization (don't know if this word exists in english )


And Yes! HE is a scumbag! but Carvalho and Coentrão are not. They just got carried away.

ridiculous stat: "Carles Puyol has not lost any of his last 50 games for Barcelona. That's 42 wins and eight draws. He's bettered Arsenal's Invincibles all on his own."

Pepe is a disgrace to football. Madrid should make themselves a favor and sell/throw him.

Great game by Barça. Even with Messi not doing much all the attention he draws allows the rest to do more things.

FORÇA!

That's nice. The Laudrup brothers were awesome, especially Michael. OFC I remember the 98 match. When Denmark scored the first goal, my brother-in-law started to make fun of me because I was pissed and I darted away crying rofl. I was 12

That Pepe is an idiot. Why would one do something like this with cameras recording everything. If you want to shake the opponent up, play tough, tackle hard and push them around if you are bigger.
You don't step on their hand when they are on the ground while 16 photographers are zooming on you, he must be really dumb.
My dick has shrunk to the point where it looks like I have 3 balls.

Puyol always will be my favourite defender. 12 years defending his team with a extreme courage and passion, and always saving the team. Barcelona is going to miss him when he retires.

I don't prefer one team over the other when it comes to the Clasico but I hate Madrid for their treachery. If anyone remembers one of the past recent clasicos when CR won a penalty and Marcelo was cheering crazy with CR which looked so fake he completely forgot he was tripped up in the box

First thought when I saw the line up that didn't include Marcelo was "I wonder who will pick up the dirtyness now that he's gone?" got the answer I Pepe haha

If the referee didn't see it they have the possibility to punish him afterwards.
In a match between Schalke and Gladbach this season Marco Reus played with an already injuried left foot and Jermaine Jones stepped on this foot on purpose. The referee didn't see it, but he was punished based on the TV clips and is not allowed to play for Schalke fot 8 weeks now.

[image loading]


That's a clip of the incident. Keep in mind, Reus had a broken toe making the whole thing worse.

Seeing Barcelona Madrid is like rewatching the recent WC-final over and over again (although Barca more dominating than Spain). Dirty play of Madrid and Netherlands, which is annoying giving their history of both playing beautiful football.

Pepe is definitely worse than de Jong, but the latter broke like 3 legs in the last year from horrendous tackles. He is a disgrace as well.

Pepe highlight from previous season if anyone missed:


Amazing how he keeps hitting and stomping. Never stops. Should have been disqualified for the rest of the season.

hahha i was 8 at the time watching it with my family and cousins, we played football outside during the half time. Peter Schmeicel was goalkeeper as well, defintely the best most legendary we've had . I'm looking forward to this next friendly vs you so i can see where my country really stands against the top notch

He should have been punished for every little thing he did in this video and banned for like a season srsly.
Now he did something similar (altho less obvious) again in one of the most watched matches world wide, he's just a disgrace for football... in my world this guy wouldn't be allowed to play anymore. Has earned enough millions already...
