Barcelona president Joan Laporta criticized VAR as a “disgrace” following Real Madrid’s controversial win over Almeria. Real Madrid was trailing 2-0 at halftime but secured a comeback victory with a stoppage-time goal from Dani Carvajal. The match featured controversial VAR decisions including a penalty for Jude Bellingham, an allowed equalizer despite a possible handball and a disallowed goal for Almeria.
Laporta expressed dissatisfaction with the refereeing, stating that there seems to be an “abandonment of functions” by the referees. Barcelona currently trails Girona by eight points and Laporta remains optimistic about the team’s future despite recent challenges. Real Madrid’s media responded by referencing Barcelona’s Negreira Case. Barcelona will next play Athletic Club in the Copa del Rey while Real Madrid faces Las Palmas in La Liga.
