How easy is it to put Madrid as a protective screen with the talk of refereeing used as a shield when your team has done things wrong. It happened to Koeman behind the Classic of Camp Nou of October 24, when he wanted to justify himself by the 1-3 and the review that the whites gave him in his lair thanks to the penalty awarded by Lenglet to Bouquets (pretty clear, by the way). Curious, since that moment Madrid have not been whistled again a penalty in favor in the League …
On Wednesday, in Bergamo We witnessed another episode of lynching against Madrid for the arbitration issue, skipping several red lights. The first and most serious is the one that accompanies this article, with two photographs that speak for themselves. Four minutes before the expulsion of Freuler, who has given so much to talk about, the Atalanta goalkeeper, Pierluigi Gollini, left the area to face an entrance of Vinicius alone and solved it by jumping on the Brazilian in Kung Fu mode, nailing the studs of his right boot on the quadriceps of Vinicius's right leg after dangerously crossing the Madridista's chest.

A treacherous and violent entry that defined well Iturralde in The Carousel of the SER: “It's red. The Italian goalkeeper knows that the Brazilian is there and leaves his leg intentionally and clearly.” The Freuler thing came later and, by the way, confirms the referee's success since the play meets the call DOGSO area, which justifies the direct red before overflow and knockdown actions, being the last player left in defense. The Arbitration Rules establish that the German Stieler was correct, which did not prevent them from resorting to the usual topics in Italy: “Scandal” or “robbery of Atalanta”. Gasperini, DEA coach, dared to say that this is going to be “soccer suicide” and that you cannot have referees “who never played.”
Mr. Gasperini, How many Ballons d'Or did you win as a footballer? Why didn't you publicly thank Stieler for forgiving the red to his goalkeeper shortly after starting the game? Why does he not say anything about the yellow card shown to Casemiro for a foul caused by Zapata's pool and that will prevent him from playing the second leg?
Stop crying, learn to play with ten as hundreds of coaches have done in history and respect the name of Real Madrid. I'm sick of cheap demagoguery against the best club in history.
