Tomorrow, Real Madrid will face Atlético de Madrid during a derby that smells of powder. In addition to the rivalry between the two stables of the Spanish capital, the Merengues and the Colchoneros are in total disagreement concerning the recent controversies linked to the arbitration errors suffered by the club of Florentino Pérez. Indeed, the residents of the Santiago-Bernabéu stadium have multiplied the scathing press releases since the lost meeting 1 to 0 against the Espanyol Barcelona last weekend. They believe that Carlos Romero, who scored the goal of the victory afterwards, should have been expelled after his assassin tackle on Kylian Mbappé.
Real Madrid vs La Liga
The drop of water that overflowed the vase of the Madrilenians, who complained of a goal unaccosed at Vinicius Jr as well as other arbitration errors. Especially since Luis Medina Cantalejo, president of the Technical Committee of Arbitrators (CTA), admitted that Romero should have been expelled: “What everyone sees, a referee and two Var referees cannot fail to see him. I am very clear on what happened, everyone has seen it, even if I am not only talking about the action of Mbappé … when it is black and white and white is obvious and that 'Referee opts for black, I cannot give you an explanation… ”
Yesterday, several Iberian media revealed that Real Madrid wants to recover the audios of the meeting against the Espanyol. Usually the CTA publishes the audios when there is an intervention of video refereeing during a match. This was not the case this time. Which makes Madrid entera, who is waiting for the audios today otherwise the club will bring the case to justice. At the same time, the Liga clubs united against the Spanish champions 2024. This is the case of Atlético de Madrid, where Diego Simeone and Antoine Griezmann publicly criticized the attitude of Real Madrid concerning the arbitration.
Ancelotti answers cash to Tebas
This Friday, Carlo Ancelotti was invited to answer them as well as to all the club's detractors, including Javier Tebas, the Boss of Laliga. “This is a subject that I would not want to approach before such an important match, but Tebas must remain calm because no one has lost their heads. They simply asked for explanations. From what I hear, nobody is happy, everyone is not happy because everyone thinks that it is a system that promotes Madrid … And when Madrid wants to change the system, everyone is against.”
Regarding the criticisms and tweets of Atlético, he dodged, not wanting to enter the little game of the press and the Colchoneros. On the other hand, he replied when he was asked if his club puts pressure on the referees as Atléti claims. “I am not aware of this. Real Madrid wants to change a system that does not like it. ” Subsequently, he was more talkative about the famous audios claimed by his club. When asked if Real Madrid has already received the audios? He replied: “no not yet. I don't know why they don't want to give them. “
The mister empty his bag
Then, he added in response to the president of the RFEF, who indicated that the Merengues would make it “perverse”: “We only asked for audio recordings, sometimes they showed them and other times not. I don't think we have asked something to do with something secret. We just want to know how they managed this action, there is nothing perverse in there (…) We only asked the audios, nothing more. A play. Not that they reveal a huge secret. We just want to know what happened, there is nothing perverse in there. ”
Finally, he spoke of the tensions around Real Madrid, attacked from all sides this week. “Your question leaves me puzzled because when you tell me about social networks, I am of the old generation. Of the pen. The networks sometimes bring arguments, debates … with little sense. Because, in my personal opinion, it is invisible. If Fernando Burgos criticizes me, it's him. But social networks are made up of invisible people, people I don't know. And I would prefer not to know. I want to put a face on the one who criticizes me. ” He will certainly come across it tomorrow during the shock against Atlético.
