Barcelona did not play a good game at the Santiago Bernabeu, but they took the lead thanks to an own goal by Eder Militao and eventually secured a valuable win over Real Madrid in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals.
However, one of the most controversial moments of the match was between Xavi Hernandez and Dani Carvajal, who had a heated confrontation that ended with referee Munuera Montero cautioning the Catalan side's coach.
The dispute originated after a clash between Carvajal and Alejandro Balde. The 'Cule' coach was unhappy with the action and took the opportunity to shout at the full-back: "You're a clever man".
Far from putting an end to the argument, Xavi could not contain his anger with the Spanish international and started calling him a fool: "You fool, you're a fool". The Madrid defender replied several times and the referee had to intervene to calm the situation.
Finally, once the match was over, the Barcelona coach and the Madrid player gave each other a big hug and settled all their differences, because what happens on the pitch, stays on the pitch.
