When Sergio Ramos collided with Antonio Rudiger during Real Madrid’s La Liga match against Sevilla, the player responded in an absurd way.

For the first time since leaving Real Madrid for free in 2021, Ramos faced his former team.

The player’s 37-year Real Madrid career was replete with accolades. In that period, he played a major role in Real Madrid’s four Champions League victories.

At the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Saturday night, however, the Spain center-back was not dwelling on the past. After a difficult start to the season, his main goal was to move his side farther away from the La Liga relegation zone.

Real Madrid 1-1 Sevilla: Player ratings as Ramos’s comeback comes to an end

He began on the left side of central defense alongside Nemanja Gudelj, which led to many fights early on, although he avoided receiving a yellow card. On the other hand, those who were hoping for a fight were not disappointed.

Rudiger, a Real Madrid player who usually covered for Ramos upon his arrival in the summer of 2022, took on Ramos in the 42nd minute of play.

Given the skill levels of both teams, the game was quite difficult. Of course, there were sparks—just not in the way Ramos usually anticipates when he speaks with a fellow player.

Rudiger stayed when many other players would have fled from the sight of an enraged Ramos approaching them throughout the years.

After the Spanish man grabbed Rudiger by the lips and yanked his shirt down, Rudiger did something very few people would have dared to do. He chuckled.

After a prolonged argument, the well-known Real Madrid star eventually left when Rudiger’s teammates intervened.

The game ended with a yellow card for a hit in the 77th minute, as the German emerged victorious in the mental game.

That occurred three minutes after Sevilla had taken the lead thanks to an own goal by David Alaba. Dani Carvajal tied the scoring with a header four minutes later.
