Sergio Ramos Demands Respect After 'Inexplicable' Club World Cup Final Whistles

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos has called for more respect after he was jeered by fans during Saturday's FIFA Club World Cup final.

Los Blancos beat hosts Al Ain 4-1 in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, to win the Club World Cup for the third year running, and Ramos was whistled every time he touched the ball.

He told TVE (h/t Marca): "The whistles are inexplicable. I think you have to respect the figures of football."

As well as booing him repeatedly, local fans also enjoyed seeing the Spaniard pick up a yellow card, per ESPN's Dermot Corrigan:

Ramos booked now for knocking over Caio out near wing - local fans seem happy with that.
