The Clasico at the Bernabeu was disappointing for Barcelona. The match caused much controversy in Spain regarding the refereeing of Cesar Soto Grado.
The first controversial decision to spark controversy was Pau Kubarsi’s penalty against Lucas Vazquez. The Real Madrid full-back slipped away very softly from Joao Cancelo and pounced on Kubarci’s leg. There was contact to the Madrid man’s satisfaction.
The second action, which caused a lot of reaction and controversy, was the goal that Lamin Yamal scored, but it was not counted because it was decided that the ball did not cross the goal line with its full volume. Lunin clearly cleared the ball into his goal. However, it is not known whether the ball completely crosses the goal line as it appears or not. Unfortunately, La Liga matches do not use the same technology as in the Premier League, where a chip informs whether the ball has crossed the goal line.
The third mistake that hurt Barca was Soto Grado’s decision not to send off Eduardo Camavinga after a foul on Lamine Yamal when the Barca forward was facing Lunin’s goal. The French defender was the last player on the field in his team and the action was very similar to the one that cost Ronald Araujo the sending off against PSG.
