Shakira and her diss tracks in recent times have majorly impacted Gerard Pique’s reputation. The soccer veteran has now become a joke on the internet. While he is currently trying to start a new life with Clara Chia Marti, the fans will simply not leave him alone. Just hours ago, FC Barcelona lifted the La Liga title for the first time in four years.

To confirm their status as champions, they needed to beat Espanyol. As they comfortably did so, Espanyol’s fans weren’t the calmest about the same.

Ahead of their major loss against the La Liga champions, the home side attempted to take a major swipe at Gerard Pique.

Gerard Pique faces major criticism despite not being with FC Barcelona!

Without a doubt, it was a must-win game for Espanyol. The Spanish soccer club is currently under the threat of relegation. The home side did everything they could to distract the FC Barcelona players. In fact, before the game, they played a controversial song. At that time, both sides were warming up on either half of the pitch.

To everyone’s surprise, Shakira’s diss track with Bizarrap suddenly plays on the speakers. While the stadium wasn’t full yet, the rival fans vibed with the song. A few days ago, a report suggested that Pique could reunite with the FC Barcelona squad. As he was a part of the squad till November, the upper management felt the need to include their ex-loyal defender in the celebrations.

Gerard Pique’s Smile Faded Due to Shakira Reference Amid Picture-Perfect Kings League Final in Barcelona

This isn’t the first time that Espanyol fans have tried to take a shot at Gerard Pique.

Espanyol fans once mocked Shakira!

Back in 2016, FC Barcelona were facing Espanyol in the Copa del Rey quarterfinal. While they ended up comfortably winning the tie 6-1 on aggregate, the fans didn’t shy away from mocking Gerard Pique. At that time, Pique was an integral part of the squad. The fans held up banners that read, “Shakira es de todos”, which means, “Shakira belongs to everyone”.

Other than that, another banner also had Antonio de la Rua’s name on it. Shakira dated Antonio for about eleven years before falling in love with Pique. The Espanyol fans went quite hardcore on the veteran defender, and their taunts are still fresh in everyone’s mind. While FC Barcelona just won the league title, Gerard Pique also had major success in the inaugural edition of the Kings League.
