Barcelona defender Joao Cancelo has defended himself after a row with autograph hunters outside the club’s training base.
Cancelo has been criticised for his reaction to the fans.

“For the people who criticise, first try to know the reality of the facts and then comment. Because real fans would always receive respect.”
