Real Madrid's Dani Carvajal has apologised for swearing at Barcelona fans during Saturday's El Clasico at the Nou Camp.

The Spain international defender was pictured raising a finger at the Barca supporters as Real celebrated the late Sergio Ramos goal which earned them a 1-1 draw.

Carvajal expressed his regret for his actions in a Twitter post on Sunday, while suggesting the gesture had been intended for a group of fans who had been taunting him.

"I'd like to apologize for the gesture to a portion of the fans, responding to insults," Carvajal wrote.

"It's something that shouldn't be done."

Nonetheless, the 24-year-old could be punished by the authorities if he is found guilty of inciting the Barcelona support.
