VIDEO: Hamann slates Ramos for 'disgraceful' behaviour

Sergio Ramos, the Real Madrid player everyone loves to hate, was up to his old tricks last night.

The Spanish defender played in midfield against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League quarter-final, and his performance was crucial in Real’s victory.

But he also drove a lot of viewers, and Atleti players, crazy with his cynical behaviour and was instrumental in getting Atletico’s playmaker Arda Turan sent off in the second half.

Sergio Ramos absolutely winding these lads up no end. Mandzukic will be waiting for him with a flick-knife after the match.

It wasn’t just fans watching at home who were annoyed by him.

Former Liverpool player Didi Hamann was also sharply critical of the player’s behaviour.

“The antics of Ramos are disgraceful for football, and not worthy of a Real Madrid player,” said the German during the post-match analysis on RTE.

“They do it time and time again, and it is pathetic to watch.”
