Even if they are much less attractive than ten years ago, the Clásicos between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona are still anticipated, especially for the Spanish public. The Madrilenians and the Catalans will cross swords this Sunday evening on the pitch of the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, during the 32nd day of La Liga. A match which quickly got carried away with Andreas Christensen’s opening score then Vinicius Júnior’s equalizer.

While the Danish defender’s goal is already subject to popular criticism from several Catalan defenders, another action risks causing a lot of ink to flow. On a corner on the right, Raphinha took care of it by kicking it home but Andriy Lunin came back behind his line at the last minute to push back the ball which nevertheless seemed to have gone in well. No goal line technology, nor contradictory decision of the VAR. The goal is not awarded due to lack of convincing image.
