Crispy exchange between Xavi and Mendilibar revealed

Last Friday, FC Barcelona escaped from the trap set by FC Sevilla during the 8th day of La Liga. Thanks to an own goal from Sergio Ramos (76th, 1-0), the Catalans won and came within a small point of Real Madrid, leader of the championship. At the end of a stormy meeting, tension rose a notch between Xavi and Mendilibar, the Andalusian coach. After the match, the cameras The Day After revealed several juicy exchanges between the two Spanish tacticians.

“Damn, why are you barking!”the Sevilla FC coach gets angry after Xavi spends his time complaining to the referees, according to him. “If I say what you say, they would have kicked me out half an hour ago.”he continues, before the Catalan coach retorts: “No, no man. Don’t mess with me, Mendi. It is not like that”. A friendly exchange between the two Spaniards who fought a real tactical battle at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium.
