Why Barcelona Star's Post on Instagram Has Infuriated Real Madrid Fans

• Real Madrid slipped up again in a La Liga clash against Girona on Tuesday
• This means Barcelona can now move 14 points clear at the top of the table
• Barca's Gavi has posted an image on Instagram that has already gone viral

Barcelona youngster, Gavi may only be 18 years old but he already knows how to win over his fans and alienate Real Madrid supporters.

Girona humiliated Los Blancos by dismantling their defence en route to a 4-2 victory.

After a 1-1 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium earlier in the season, the Catalan minnows have a 50% win rate against Real Madrid and have taken four points off them this season.

Just minutes after their defeat, Barcelona’s young star, Gavi posted a story on his Instagram with two smiley faces, as Football Espana reports.

As pointed out by Mundo Deportivo, the post did not go down well with many Madridistas, who were upset at the star taking joy in their loss, which did not go down well.

It would be a remarkable coincidence if the two were not related but either way, the reaction to Gavi proves the depth of the clubs' rivalry. But whether it was or not, it is not worthy of too much ire one way or another.

The Spaniard has recently come under fire in the media for his aggressive style of play, with others claiming referees are clearly biased against him.

Gavi received a caution against Getafe two weekends ago in only the second minute of the game, which can be taken many different ways.

Barcelona risk losing midfielder Gavi

Meanwhile, Barcelona are at risk of losing Gavi for nothing this summer following a court reversing its ruling on the registration of the midfielder, Tribal Football reports.

Premier League giants, Liverpool and Manchester City are watching developments closely and could swoop in if the Catalans fail in their bid to have him re-registered.

Gavi has been instrumental for Barcelona this season under Xavi, with the teenage sensation making a total of 36 appearances for La Blaugrana in all competitions.
