Is Pepe really bad at tackling or really good at injuring? We can’t tell.
The Real Madrid centre-back doesn’t care if you’re a teammate, close friend or a family member. He will find you and he will hack you down.
Pepe left teammate and fellow countryman Cristiano Ronaldo on the ground clutching his shin after going in hard on him in a game of rondo.

The challenge came just fifteen seconds after Ronaldo taunted the fiery defender so we don’t know if revenge was on Pepe’s mind or it was a simple misplaced tackle.
The logic in us wants to believe the latter but Pepe’s track record suggests the former.
Rafael Benitez would want to put his foot down.
