A disappointing evening for Barcelona was capped with one of their icons being exposed on social media and by TV networks covering the game, as Gerard Piqué's heated exchange with Antoine Griezmann was criticized around the world.

With the game level 1-1, Piqué was complaining about the lack of intensity shown by his teammates in their attempt to defend a long ball that ended in a corner kick. Piqué's words were aimed specifically at Antoine Griezmann, who did not hold back and aimed a fiery response to the center back, which made things even worse between the duo.

Piqué continued his complaint against Griezmann with a variety of insults. Unfortunately for Piqué, the lack of fans inside the stadium made it easier for fans and experts to spot his barrage of insults against his teammate.

Have a look at Piqué's heated exchange with Griezmann. Don't worry if you are not that familiar with the Spanish language, since we will provide the necessary translation under the video.
