Barcelona saves the match before El Clásico. They will fall behind in the table, but the distance with Real Madrid has been reduced thanks to the gifts of the referees.
After Real Madrid’s heist against Sevilla on Saturday at the Sanchez Pizjuan, Barcelona sought to make the most of the league, taking advantage of the gift given to them by de Burgos Bengoetxea.
In the midst of all the chaos surrounding the Negrera case, the referees helped the Blaugrana team once again. They did not waste it, even though it cost them more than they had imagined.
They did everything they could to try, especially when they looked the other way when Joao Cancelo checked the elasticity of Neco Williams’ shirt to unexpected limits, in a catch that neither the referee nor the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) was supposed to see.
Not to mention the leniency on Oriol Romeu, who should have received a double yellow card in the first half after being forgiven for the first in the 16th minute, after diving from behind to chase down Sunset.
Although Ter Stegen was also a starter. During the first half, he made several saves that saved his team, which was clearly getting stronger. The first part was long.
The same scenario in the second half
In the second 45 minutes, Barcelona tried to start intensely, but lost its strength as time passed. Munuera Monteiro did not want to leave the team one goal behind, after ignoring a handball from Gavi that could have been a yellow card.
But it was clear that it would not continue that way. Mark scored the winner by clearing a questionable mark, which they barely took the time to review and which the broadcast showed again with play in two parts and not a sweeping shot.
