Emilio Butragueño, director of institutional relations at Real Madrid, was very critical of the work of the referee of the match against Levante, the Catalan Medié Jiménez, and with the VAR, the Balearic Cuadra Fernández.
On Militao's red card in the 8th minute, he commented on the Movistar + microphones: “The game is conditioned by the expulsion. It is difficult to play with ten minutes at this level. Sergio León does not control towards the goal, but towards the left and Odriozola was approaching there. According to the regulations, the expulsion must occur when there is a clear chance of scoring and so it would have been if he had gone straight for the door with all the advantage. But going left, I have my doubts and I think that the yellow would have been enoughand”.
Respect to the penalty from Vinicius to Clerc, He also objected: “At first it whistles out; It is the VAR referee who tells him that it is a penalty. Our players asked him to go see the play because there is a shot in which it seems that it is outside where the contact occurs. It is striking that the referee did not want to go to see the play when the images invited to think that the infraction could have taken place outside ”.
