Sergio Ramos called Pique to demand answers over tweet

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos, absent from the Copa del Rey clash in Cadiz which Madrid won 3-1, called up Barcelona's Gerard Pique to ask for an explanation after his controversial tweet.

News broke that Denis Cheryshev should have been suspended for the game and Real Madrid might be disqualified, and Pique posted a tweet solely featuring laughing and crying emojis. 

Real Madrid did not like the joke and Ramos, according to radio station Onda Cero, called up Pique to demand answers. Answers which Pique gave on Thursday, saying "you know me, I found it funny". 

This is not the first time the pair have clashed. Perhaps Ramos was still angry after the Clasico crushing at the Santiago Bernabeu.
