Jesus Gil Manzano's report included the words of Gerard Pique, for which the centre-back was sent off at half-time, when he was not part of the starting team, for a series of insults.

What was intended to be Pique's last dance at Barcelona and in the world of football, turned into a somewhat peculiar last 'show'. The centre-back did not start against Osasuna, although everything pointed to the fact that he could say goodbye on the pitch (his coach later confirmed this in the mixed zone).
After the difficult start to the game, where the 'Cules' conceded an early controversial goal by David Garcia, and the later dismissal of Lewandowski, the Barcelona captain could not hold back and went straight to Gil Manzano.
The outcome was as follows: Pique was sent off in his last match as a professional footballer. At the end of the 90 minutes, the referee from Extremadura published the report, where the defender's words were recorded.
"In the 45th minute, Gerard Pique was sent off for the following reason: "At the end of the first half, when he was already inside the tunnel, for addressing me in the following terms: 'Have you seen the corner you gave us? You are the referee who has screwed us the most by far," he wrote in the report, published on the official website of the Technical Committee of Referees of the Royal Spanish Football Federation.
"Once the club delegate was informed of this player's dismissal, he continued to repeat the same expressions described in the section on dismissals, having to be taken into his dressing room by club staff, while addressing me in the following terms: "It's a f***ing disgrace, I s**t on your f***ing mother!"," added the referee.
