WHAT HAPPENED? Sergio Ramos received a second yellow quickly after his first for dissent directed towards the referee, however his team-mates did not agree with the decision.

WHAT THEY SAID: “I think the referee needs to handle the situation better," said Danilo Pereira to Canal+. "There is no reason for that. It irritates us because we want to play football but like that, it's complicated."

Manager Christophe Galtier added: "I am not convinced that the insult [Ramos was sent off for] was even directed at the referee."

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Ramos will now be suspended for PSG's top of the table clash against Marseille in a disruption to a campaign that has been going much better for him than the last.
