Watch: Referee is having none of Pepe's shenanigans

Reuters

Referee Mark Clattenburg was none too impressed with Real Madrid defender Pepe, who twice feigned injury in hopes a card would be dolled out to Atletico Madrid players in the Champions League final.

Pepe dramatically flopped and held his face after being lightly slapped, and the English official ... responded by doing something strange with his tongue.

We're not quite sure what Clattenburg meant to convey as he licked the air in lizard-like fashion. Perhaps he could taste the tension in the air as penalties loomed in the 1-1 draw after 120 minutes.
