Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti clashed with referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea during their draw with Sevilla.

Ancelotti was fuming after De Burgos denied Real two goals with the score locked at 0-0.

The Italian's protests forced De Burgos to approach him and demand he calm down, which included the ref taking his arms.

At this point Ancelotti, snapped them away and told De Burgos: "Don't touch me!"

Post-match, Ancelotti remarked: "Irony is the only way to analyse this game. If I say what I think of the refereeing, many games will be lost. What I like the most is sitting on the bench and to avoid suspensions. I do not say what I think and will instead use irony."
