Barcelona defender Gerard Pique says he will quit international football after the 2018 world cup.
The 29-year old made the statement after the 2-0 win over Albania in their world cup qualifier, a match in which he was accused by people for cutting off his shirt sleeve that did not have the same flag design.
However, Pique produced proof after the match that the accusations has pushed him too far.
"I've tried everything but I cannot take any more," he said in a statement released by the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF).
"Today with the sleeves is the straw that breaks the camel's back. They've made it so I've lost the excitement of coming here, and although after Russia I'll only be 31, I'll leave."
Being frustrated might be bad at times.....
