Ronaldo, Arbeloa fire back at Pique following mocking Tweet

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique has made no secret of his dislike of Real Madrid.

During the build up to Real Madrid's eventual disqualification from the Copa del Rey, Pique took to Twitter to express his feelings about the matter, in a rather simple way:

Former Madrid midfielder Guti got his jab back following Barcelona's 1-1 draw with Valencia last weekend, as did Cristiano Ronaldo and Alvaro Arbeloa, who also weighed in on Pique's taunt after thrashing Malmo 8-0 in the Champions League.

"Pique seems obsessed with us," Arbeloa told reporters. "One day I'll see him on 'The Comedy Club' doing an act about Real Madrid. Barca's last 10 years aren't enough to match Real Madrid's history."

Ronaldo took a much more dismissive approach.

"It's not worth talking about, I don't want to give free publicity," Ronaldo said. "I don't speak about these things because it's a waste of time."

Pique doesn't really need free publicity, though:
