Barcelona and Real Madrid defenders involved in verbal spat before second half

After what was a first-half that saw Sergi Roberto get sent off and Sergio Ramos, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez seeing yellow cards, Nacho and Pique had a spat as soon as the sides were about to step out onto the field for the second half.
Pique approached Nacho from behind and told him something while covering his mouth, to which Nacho replied "How can you complain if they have dismissed us 17 times already?"Nacho not too happy with what Pique had to say behind a covered mouth at halftime. Should be a spicy next 45 minutes! #ElClassico #Barcelona #RealMadrid #nacho #pique #BarcaRealMadrid pic.twitter.com/UhhIpnszwU

The spat threatened to boil over until Sergio Ramos and the three match officials had to step in.
