Booth 360. In the final sprint to the La Liga title, Real Madrid go on to win, while Barça get stuck. However, the press and some FC Barcelona players accuse their rival of being favored by the referees. A false controversy that shakes Spain.
While Real Madrid is chaining wins at the top of the La Liga, it is fueling a controversy over an arbitration presumed to be favorable. FC Barcelona defender Gerard Pique even accused the Merengues of being helped by referees.
The controversy arose after the match between the White House and Real Sociedad (2-1). This match was controversial in Spain for the disputed arbitral decisions. First there was a so-called “generous” penalty, but which specialists recognized as perfectly justified, awarded to Vinicius, then a goal denied to Adnan Januzaj for an offside position by Mikel Merino. And to finish, Karim Benzema especially scored after a nice sequence started with a control of the ball with the shoulder. As a reminder, on these three actions the arbitrator resorted to VAR to confirm his decisions.
Facing Eibar, the portal Eurosport this Sunday, June 28, Gerard Piqué estimated that the madtrilene defenders, Casemiro and Sergio Ramos, who already had a yellow, multiplied the muscular outings without being sanctioned by a red.
However, the Real manages above all to provoke actions, sows doubt and succeeds in turning the situations to its advantage. Which makes it a trait of great teams. But the rival of always, FC Barcelona, supported by the unleashed Catalan media, jumps on the slightest opportunity to cast doubt on the shattering return of Real.
According to Eurosport, the frustration of the Catalans who post a disappointing recovery, aims to put pressure on Real in this final sprint towards the title. A former Blaugrana, who spoke in the columns of daily life AS ask to put an end to this false controversy: “I do not think that the errors in favor of Real are intentional. It would be sad, very sad even if there were external aid to favor Real or even Barça. So I do not think not that the referees have bad intentions. “
