Real
Madrid players are “quite angry” with Barcelona’s Leo Messi
following the four-time FIFA Ballon d’Or winner’s behaviour after
their Copa del Rey clash with the Catalans at the Santiago Bernabéu
Stadium on Wednesday, reports in Spain on Thursday claimed.
Punto Pelota and Marca
reported that the Argentina captain went to the players’ car park at
the Bernabéu in search of Álvaro Arbeloa after the game.
Messi reportedly launched a tirade of
insults at the Real defender – calling him “stupid”, to name but one –
leaving the full-back completely shocked.
Arbeloa’s wife, Carlota, who is expecting a baby, was said to be with the Spain international and was also astonished.
“What’s his problem?” she asked her
husband, according to witnesses at the scene. A Barcelona member of
staff had to be called to take Messi to the team coach.
La Sexta television and La Cope
radio also reported another incident involving the Barça goal-machine
and another member of the Real setup – Aitor Karanka, which occurred in
the tunnel to the changing rooms
