SERGIO RAMOS has appeared to mock his Real Madrid team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo during a Spanish training session today.
The 33-year-old starred for Portugal against the 2010 World Cup winners as his hat-trick help his side salvage a point during the 3-3 draw.
But it was his opener that caused outrage from Spain, with many believing he dived as Nacho came over to tackle.
However, replays clearly show the Los Blancos defender clipping the leg of Ronaldo, as he done a step over before racing past him.
He subsequently scored the spot-kick, as he sent David De Gea the wrong way - much to the anger of the Spanish squad.
And Ramos looks to have mimicked the five-time Ballon d'Or winner in hilarious fashion during training.
The 32-year-old did a step over of his own to get past Nacho, before falling to the ground as he threw himself into the 28-year-old - who raised his arms to protest his innocence.
Several of his team-mates - including De Gea and Cesar Azpilicueta - noticed the incident, and saw the funny side as they walked away chuckling.
While Ramos himself got up and gave Nacho a wry smile, much like Ronaldo did after he won the penalty.
Barcelona defender Gerard Pique was outraged with Ronaldo after the epic draw on Friday, insisting he conned the referee.
He said: "We had more chances, they had three shots on goal, and scored three goals.
"Matches go a certain way and you have to face up to it.
"To see yourself in the first game of a World Cup go behind to a penalty after two minutes, you have to have a good feeling after how the game went.
"Ronaldo has a habit of throwing himself to the ground."
