Madrid’s Pepe apologizes for Messi foot stomp

Posted Friday, January 20, 2012 by YAHOO Sport

Real Madrid defender Pepe has apologized to Lionel Messi for stepping on the Barcelona forward’s hand in his team’s 2-1 loss in the Copa del Rey, saying that it wasn’t intentional.

Pepe told Real Madrid’s website Thursday that “as far as the play with Leo Messi, I want to say that it was an involuntary act.”

The Portugal international added that “even so, if Messi is offended I ask his forgiveness because I want to defend my team and club … It never passed through my head to cause harm to a fellow professional.”

Pepe received a yellow card early in Wednesday’s 2-1 loss when he barged into Sergio Busquets, but the referee did not book him for stomping on Messi’s hand when the forward was on the ground in the second half.
