Stud marks were left on a wall which he's said to have booted

Gerard Pique's handball gave Osasuna a late penalty to draw 2-2 against Barcelona on Saturday. The player was visibly angry with the decision and said he didn't think it was a penalty after the game. 

Pique's anger on the pitch continued into the dressing room. According to sources at Osasuna, reported in various Pamplona-based media outlets, Pique stormed down the tunnel criticising the decision and then kicked the wall when he got to the dressing room, leaving stud marks. 

Later, Pique spoke in the mixed zone about the decision which saw Barça drop two points at El Sadar. 

"I would like to see refs try to jump with their hands down," he told reporters. "I can’t cut off my arms and also if it doesn’t hit me in the arm, it hits me in the face.

"At the beginning of the season, referees said lots of things to us...The distance of the ball when it struck the attacker. It was very clear to me, it was not a penalty."
