The RFEF counterattacks. Last weekend, Real Madrid’s narrow victory over Almeria was quickly overshadowed by a new controversy surrounding the refereeing of Hernandez Maeso. In addition, the excessive use of VAR has been singled out on the other side of the Pyrenees. In the process, the fallen Spanish team added fuel to the fire by broadcasting an image from the IFAB on social networks showing a conversation between the officials in charge of video refereeing. A few days after this scandal, the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) decided to support the Spanish referees.

“The RFEF would like to show its support, solidarity and confidence in the referees and referees in the face of the attacks they suffer in the exercise of their powers. Likewise, she wishes to strongly condemn the theft and dissemination of various audios from the VAR system, as it is a blatant violation of data protection, which is why it was brought to the attention of the Guardia Civil, as announced yesterday. The path towards transparency and understanding of the work of arbitration is a firm decision by the RFEF and its CTA, which will continue to carry out its work with professionalism and rigor. The collective of referees is a reference in Europe and the world, as recognized by UEFA and FIFA, by appointing Spanish referees in major events, such as World Cups, European Championships or League champions. Respect for the referee must be a maxim for all levels related to football. Umpires and umpires are an essential part of this sport and the respect they deserve is an important example of social behavior. It is everyone’s ultimate responsibility to ensure and promote it. Football and its proper development depend on it. Without referees, there is no football.we can read in the official press release from the RFEF.
