Soccer Football - International Friendly - Wales v Spain - Principality Stadium, Cardiff, Britain - October 11, 2018 Spain's Sergio Ramos celebrates scoring their second goal Action Images via Reuters/Andrew Couldridge
During Wales’ 4-1 defeat at the hands of Spain, it wasn’t so much the goals or the players on show that remained in the memories of the fans, more so the booing of Spain captain Sergio Ramos by Liverpool fans. The discontent towards Ramos arose from his challenge on Mohamed Salah in the Champions League final that forced him to be substituted and that has continued with many football fans across the globe having their say on the matter.
I take it that the fans that are booing Ramos are liverpool fans

Lots of Welsh fans at the game grew frustrated at the atmosphere, citing one of the reasons as the booing of Ramos.
One thing that did annoy me last night was the constant booing of Sergio Ramos by certain sections of our fans every time he touched the ball. This isn’t Liverpool v Real Madrid or Spain v Egypt ffs. What has Ramos ever done to offend Wales!? #WALESP

Other fans just couldn’t understand why they were booing him.
