Real Madrid's recent formal complaint to the Spanish football federation criticized the refereeing standards in LaLiga, describing them as entirely discredited and manipulated. The complaint cited a controversial match against Espanyol, where Madrid demanded audio recordings of the VAR discussions, pointing out errors that they deemed unacceptable and detrimental to the game's fairness. LaLiga president deflected by accusing Madrid of playing the victim and signaled intentions to file a counter-complaint, indicating growing tensions between the league and one of its prominent clubs over officiating integrity.
The decisions exceeded any margin for human error or refereeing interpretation, describing the game as the culmination of a completely discredited refereeing system.
LaLiga president Javier Tebas warned that LaLiga would lodge a complaint against Madrid's board over their claims, arguing the narrative was intolerable.
