- MADRID — Real Madrid drew 1-1 at El Sadar in a match marked by the controversial
refereeing of Munuera Montero on the field and Trujillo Suarez in the VAR.
-
- Jude Bellingham got a straight red card in the 39th minute
and was sent off the pitch with his side leading 1-0, after appearing to say
something out of turn to referee Jose Luis Munuera Montero, who immediately
reached into his pocket to pull out the red card.
-
- “For Bellingham’s red card, the referee didn’t understand
English. He said f**k off, he didn't say f**k you, and he made a mistake
because the translation in Spanish is no me jodas; it's inoffensive. In the
last three games, many things have happened that everyone has seen. I'm looking
forward to being in the dugout next game.
-
- “The VAR has checked things in our area and not in the
opponent's, as happened at the beginning of the match. There were two or three
situations that should have been reviewed and weren’t," said Ancelotti.
-
- The sanction Bellingham receives will depend on what Munuera
writes in his post-game report, but if he says Bellingham insulted him, the
midfielder could face a suspension of between 4-12 games, reports Xinhua.
-
- Kylian Mbappe had put Madrid ahead in the 15th minute with a
powerful finish as he arrived from deep to smash home Federico Valverde's low
cross.
-
- Real Madrid was even more unhappy with the referee after
Ante Budimir leveled for Osasuna from the penalty spot in the 58th minute.
-
- The Croatian striker saw a chance just go wide of the Real
Madrid goal after Thibaut Courtois had blocked Juan Moncayola's effort, but he
was caught later by Eduardo Camavinga. After consulting with the VAR and
looking at the pitch-side screen, Munuera pointed to the spot for Budimir to
send Courtois the wrong way and equalize.
