Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro decided to 'get his revenge' on James Milner during Wednesday's Champions League quarter-final clash against Liverpool - and the clip has since gone viral on social media.
In a fiesty first-half at Anfield last night, Los Blancos striker Karim Benzema was lucky to escape without any serious injury when the experienced Milner made contact with the Frenchman's ankle.
To the surprise of many, the shocking challenge went unpunished but minutes later, Benzema's teammate Casemiro saw an opportunity to make his mark on Milner near the touchline.
