Barcelona lost 1-3 against Real Madrid, but one of the controversial plays of the match was the VAR’s decision to sanction a penalty after Lenglet grabbed Sergio Ramos.
At the end of the game, coach Ronald Koeman complained about the VAR and the referees, not only in this game, but throughout this start of the season.
“For me it is not a penalty and I told the referee that I hope one day they can explain VAR to me in Spain. We have five days and the VAR has only come against Barcelona. It has not entered the play of Sevilla against Messi, nor has it entered the two fouls that for me are red against Getafe. Why is there only VAR against us? “, He said at a press conference.
Although the coach is not against the VAR, he did express his annoyance about the interpretation of the play that ended in a goal for the meringues.
“I have not spoken with Lenglet about the play, I did see the image and I think that in principle it is a lack of bouquets for Lenglet. Then he does take it by the shirt, but not so much to pull himself back; if you take hold of the shirt you have to pull forward, not back, ”said Koeman.
Finally, the technician once again accused the referees of misusing the VAR, but clarified that he does not want to talk about that issue any more.
“It is normal for players to press for a penalty. The referee and the VAR must conclude if it is a penalty. I don’t want to talk about this anymore, but it was at a decisive moment of the penalty, “he said.
