Former French footballer Frank Ribery recalled the match he played against Real Madrid in the 1/4 finals of the Champions League in 2017 as part of Bayern.
Idman.Biz reports that the statement of 42-year-old F. Ribery was published by sportsrufootbal.
He stated that Dani Carvajal slapped him during a dispute for the ball in that match.
According to Ribery, after this episode, Sergio Ramos and Pepe began to show special aggression towards him.
The experienced footballer said that the opposing defenders tried to stop him harshly with every touch of the ball. In his opinion, that game turned into a survival battle rather than a football match.
Ribery especially emphasized that Pepe attacked him directly, not the ball.
