Real Madrid defender Pepe phoned Javier Casquero yesterday to apologise to the Getafe captain.

Pepe kicked Casquero twice as he was on the ground during this week's win against Getafe. The Portugal defender couldn't get through to Casquero and left a message on his answering machine.

Pepe also made contact with Juan Albin, who he also clashed with after being shown a red card for his kicking incident.
