Little by little more is being discovered about the Real Madrid players' celebrations at Cibeles. Celebrations which have been stained by insults towards Barcelona defender Gerard Pique and for references to Los Blancos' other rivals, Atletico Madrid.  

The chants against Pique and Atletico were started by the supporters. However, during one moment of the celebration, one Madrid player took the microphone and led the celebration. The player in question re-started the chants and directed his team-mates, with some jumping up and down and others just staring. 

Unlike last season's Champions League celebrations, this time the microphone was passed between the players. That meant that it wasn't clear which player began the chants against Pique. Television footage causes some doubts, but in the end everyone is claiming that it is right-back Dani Carvajal based on images from Real Madrid TV:

 

Carvajal is the same player who stuck his middle finger up at the Barça fans during the Clasico at Camp Nou in December.
