Real Madrid favored by arbitration is the thesis fueled these days again in the ranks of Atlético de Madrid, where the recent elimination is not digested for the benefit of Merengues, on penalties, in the knockout stages of the Champions League.

During this fateful session, the Matelassiers saw the victorious attempt by Julian Alvarez invalidated for an alleged double contact with the ball. Hot, while the Argentinian shooter it is true had slipped, the Kylian Mbappé and others are precipitated towards the referee to claim this outcome – a verdict finally quickly adopted after recourse to video assistance.

“I have seen it thousands of times”

Since then, despite the publication by UEFA even of images supposed to justify the sentence, difficult to decide. And the main interested party to add a layer this Saturday: ” I have seen it thousands of times, there are videos everywhere. If there were two keys, the contact is minimal and it is very difficult to perceive “Consulates Julian Alvarez.

“” The rules must be a little clearer because I am not trying to take advantage of the situation. For example, when the goalkeeper advances and stops a penalty, the penalty is to be removed. And it's not to take advantage of the situation “Pleads the Albiceleste striker. At the end of this frustrating Real-Atlético for the Colchoneros, Diego Simeone and its President Enrique Cerezo had not hidden their indignation.
