FC Barcelona News
Barcelona defeated Real Madrid in El Clasico in the twenty-sixth round of La Liga competitions, 2-1. A win that allows Xavi Hernandez’s men to move 12 points clear of Carlo Ancelotti’s side in the table, bringing them 12 games closer to the league title.
However, the result could have been different, but referee De Burgos Bengotxea, after reviewing the VAR (VAR), disallowed a goal by Marco Asensio, which would have made the score 1-2.
Despite the fact that offside is well noticeable, Madrid still questioned it. The defender of Real Madrid and the Spanish national team, Dani Carvajal, spoke about this arbitration decision at a promotional event that was held today in the camp of the Spanish national team.
“We have to dedicate ourselves to playing and doing our best,” Carvajal told the media. In the last game the goal was considered offside and that’s because it was that way. You must abide by the decision and not question the system at any time.”
They also asked him about his quarrel with Arnau Tenas, Barcelona’s third goalkeeper, as soon as the match was over and also about the skirmishes of Javi and Ceballos. He said: “Friction on the field of play is nothing more than friction in high-tension matches. They are rivals with very intense matches. Now, in the national team, we defend the same jersey and we are in the same boat.”
