Real Madrid defender, Pepe, with his statement has offended Barcelona´s midfielder, Andres Iniesta, calling all the Barça players theatrical.
Remember, the latest match between Barcelona and Real Madrid ended with a draw (2:2). As always, this El Clasico as well has not passed without complaint at some referee´s call, and Pepe has gone a step further and called the players of Barcelona "theatrical".
Pepe is an idiot, completely unprofessional, a man that stomps on another player's hand while he is on the ground, pshh... players calling out other teams need to grow up.
But he wasn't lying... some barca players are theatrical.

We all know barcelona players are divers, and divers are barcelona players, I don't see what the problem is.
Both teams are fantastic, but last season they really shamed themselves a number of times when they played. Diving constantly from both sides, feigning injury, waving imaginary cards, surrounding the ref.
This last game was much improved on that score. The only thing that'll stop diving is for video evidence to be studied and players retroactively banned for cheating to win penalties or get others booked....instant 1 game ban, if they do it again, 2 games. That'll stop it in a heart beat.
Lol at some of the disagrees here, didn't realize there was so many Madrid fans here. Tbh, if someone like Kaka came out with such claims, it would be so much more legit but Pepe? That guy is no better and it's almost cringe worthy seeing him pretend to be injured. Also, theatrical? Every classico I've seen, I see the odd Barce diver but for the most part, they are composed and get on with it.. Real Madrid jump up and down and get in a huff over ever single foul called against them. I won't disagree that players like Busquets and Sanchez can be bad, but Real Madrid are more like the drama queens here.
