Talk to the hand

It doesn’t matter who you are, if you lay a finger on Xavi, be prepared to face the consequences.

No one enjoyed the Barcelona’s treble parade more than legendary midfielder Xavi. The Qatar bound Spaniard got so caught up in the joyous occasion that he refused to let anyone get in the way of his celebrations, including his teammates.

At one point, Xavi clung onto the side of Barca’s bus to savour the moment. However, Neymar, Andres Iniesta and Ivan Rakitic felt that the Spaniard needed to come down from his perch and tried to coax him down from the vehicle.

Xabi was having none of it and even rather aggressively shoved Neymar in the face to prevent him from bringing him back down to ground level. Check out the briefly fiery moment in the video embedded below.
