the former player Ferdinand River he was one of the many television commentators who were at the Bernabéu for Real Madrid-Chelsea. Before the game started, Rio Ferdinand was on the pitch to assess the game and there he made a gesture that made Real Madrid fall in love.
The position of ‘BT Sport’, the chain where Ferdinand commented on the game, was on the shield of the white team. That meant that both Ferdinand and Joe Cole, who also commented on the game, had to step on the Real Madrid shield. The two former players considered this disrespectful and forced them to change their positions to avoid stepping on the shield.
Ferdinand He posted a video on his social networks to show the moment. “I think we need to have a conversation here, ‘Coley’… What are you asking us to do, mate?” Ferdinand said. Cole’s response couldn’t have been clearer: “They’re asking us to stand on the Real Madrid shield. You can’t do that, man!” started with Ferdinand saying, to clarify later after the change of position that “this is where we meant to put ourselves. We have to talk to the boss, we can’t do that. We’re going to roll it up so we don’t stay in the shield.”
Joe ColeFor his part, he said they did not “want to anger the beast (in reference to Real Madrid)” before kick-off.
