Barcelona defender Gerard Pique has admitted he found the situation surrounding Denis Cheryshev and Real’s ban from the Copa del Rey funny.
The Los Cule centre back, who has taunted Real on a number of times in the past, posted a tweet on Wednesday evening with a number of emojis showing tears of laughter. It was around the same time that news emerged Cheryshev should not have been playing for Real in the tie against Cadiz as he was supposed to be serving a one-match ban for picking up three yellow cards in last season’s competition.
Asked about the post on the social media site, Pique joked at first that it was unrelated but then admitted he found the situation funny. He then offered his support to Cheryshev, who is believed to be distraught by what happened.
“I was watching a Leo Harlem sketch … Just kidding, you know me! I found it funny,” he told reporters. My support goes to Cheryshev. He’s a professional footballer and hopefully it’ll resolved quickly,” he told reporters.
“I remember being shown a fifth yellow card against Atletico Madrid [on the final day of the 2013-14 season], and I knew I wouldn’t be able to play the first game of the following season. I’m a curious guy, so I called the club to find out. Carlos Naval is our match delegate. I don’t know who Real Madrid’s is, but they have plenty of staff on their books.”
