The Rayo coach, Andoni Iraola, has raised his voice against the referees that his team is suffering in this league start. The franjirrojos feel harmed and the Basque has verbalized it at a press conference: “We come from very negative experiences in that sense. The other day they gave Qasmi a penalty, for which he could have quietly sent off the rival (he nails his heels), in the 93rd minute, they don't whistle it and we have no point. Today they make another very evident and neither. You think that in the area they have to kill you to be whistled, but then they point to the Fuenlabrada, against, with their shoulder. You try to do your job and not get off the track, but it's very difficult. “
Iraola referred to the foul – an elbow – of the Almería Maras defender on his forward Qasmi at 84 '. A penalty that neither Iglesias Villanueva nor the VAR have indicated. But this situation has already come from afar, since last day the Rayistas experienced something very similar. The Lugo Venancio center back entered Qasmi with his foot plate into the area and De la Fuente Ramos did not whistle. Neither does video arbitration. Hence, the Vallecano club published a tweet that same night with the image of the controversy to denounce it publicly.
It is already the third time that the Madrid entity feels aggrieved by the arbitrations this 2020-21. To find the first one, it would be necessary to go back to Tenerife-Rayo, when the same referee this afternoon, Iglesias Villanueva, annulled Andrés Martín's tying goal for a very tight offside. The interpretation of that action raised blisters. “This referee has already touched us at the Heliodoro and, every time he whistles at us, he has very bad luck. I can not say anything else“Iraola sentenced.
