Barcelona legend Gerard Pique has sent out a message after seeing rivals Real Madrid dumped out of the Copa del Rey last 16 by lowly Albacete.
Los Blancos were beaten 3-2 on Wednesday night in what turned out to be a nightmare first game in charge for new boss Alvaro Arbeloa.
The result did not go unnoticed by Pique who responded on social media. “Good debut for the new Madrid,” he wrote on the King’s League Twitch channel, per Mundo Deportivo.
Hansi Flick’s side will be favorites to progress but know they face a tricky evening as Racing have already dumped Villarreal out of the competition this season.
