Atlético is afraid of reprisals for Real Madrid's complaints against Sevilla

At Atlético there is perplexity and fear of what may happen in their matches until the end of the season. While the team trains in Majadahonda to prepare for the clash against Real Sociedad, at the rojiblanco club they are perplexed after criticism of the VAR after Real Madrid-Sevilla. The Madrid team has compared Militao's hand with Felipe's in the derby on March 7, which is not understood by Atlético. And now, in the absence of three days with a high load of tension, it is feared that there will be excessive pressure on the referees.

In the club and in the locker room consider that Martínez Munuera was right in the hand of Militao, whose arm was extended and very high. The referee did not see it, but from the VAR they warned of the action. Felipe's action at Atlético-Real Madrid was also reviewed by the VAR and Hernández Hernández understood that it was not punishable by the maximum penalty. So, Atlético was ironic with the complaints through their social networks: “They criticize even the successes … Some are used to always having the wind in their favor “. Not nowor they understand the comparison because, to begin with, the actions were very different.

In the Wanda Metropolitano club they understand that Real Madrid now wants to put all the pressure on the refereeing of the rojiblanco team this week against Real Sociedad and Osasuna.
Atlético also feels that they have been harmed in these last weeks. Against Sevilla, the local goal (the game ended 1-0) was preceded by a very clear hand from Ocampos that neither the field referee saw nor did they estimate from the VOR room that it invalidated the play. And against Elche, in the penalty that Fidel missed in the last minute, the play is also born from a previous hand indicated to Trippier that Melero López whistled.
