Gerald Pique did not agree to one thing about Cristiano Ronaldo and that has to do with been award free-kick whenever is being wrongly tackled.

The 31-year-old was speaking at a press conference when he opened up about his take on the referee's decision and lavished praise on his team saying, "We picked ourselves up again after a lot of problem because starting a World Cup by conceding a penalty in the second minutes and going behind is difficult but we scored three goals and we have to be happy with how the game went."

However, Jose Nacho disagreed with Pique's position on Ronaldo as he said at the press conference that it was his "intention to retract the leg."
"It is true that there was contact, I touched Cristiano but the intention I had during the whole action was to retract the leg," he said in admission to the tackle that led to the penalty.
"Since there is contact, I think that the VAR ratified the decision. It really is a difficult situation; difficult for the defender, difficult for the referee."
