Real Madrid: the new spicy outing of Carlo Ancelotti on the referees

On the move on the lawn of the Espanyol de Barcelona last weekend, Real Madrid had the opportunity to confirm its domination in the championship with a success in the face of a very affordable rival. But in Catalan lands, like a bad recent memory, Carlo Ancelotti's troops took a hit on the head, bowing on the smallest of the margins (1-0). This setback notably enabled Atlético de Madrid to return to a small point in the classification. After the match, there was only a question of this assassin tackle of Carlos Romero – also a scorer later – on Kylian Mbappé, who, according to the Madrilenians, deserved a red card. Present at a press conference on the eve of the meeting of Copa del Rey against Licens, Carlo Ancelotti answered the media questions, most of them on the letter denouncing the corruption of the arbitration sent by the club to the Federation and the CSD .

As a reminder, in this famous, it was written: “The facts that happened in this match surpassed any margin of human error or arbitration interpretation. It is the peak of a completely discredited arbitral system, in which decisions against Real Madrid have reached a level of manipulation and falsification of competition which can no longer be ignored. The two most serious arbitral decisions of this match highlighted, once again, the way Real Madrid is refereed. What happened at the RCDE Stadium is neither an isolated case, nor a simple arbitration error. The scandal following this last match, which crossed our borders, is not an isolated fact or a minor affair, but the unequivocal confirmation that the competition is marred by arbitral decisions which are impossible to justify».

He puts a layer on the arbitration

The Italian coach has limited himself to showing his support for the club, but mainly focuses on the search for solutions requested by the entity in view of the risk that Kylian Mbappé has run in this action: “Something inexplicable has happened and what the club asks is an explanation and I think it is correct, because nothing has been done to protect the integrity of the player. I refer to what I said, speaking of the player's integrity and we ask for an explanation, nothing more. It's time to change something. When there is a problem, you have to change something. Here everyone complains in Spain and that means that it could be an opportunity to change something“He said. Out of the question to oppose his direction, the former AC Milan and PSG coach still does not come back from this non-sanctioned tackle on Kylian Mbappé.

Asked about the other championships in which he had the chance to train, Carlo Ancelotti was very clear. Spain seems to be a separate and particular case: “It's very complicated. Where they have less pressure is in England. That's why they have a better yield. Each country makes its own decisions, what happened is an opportunity to change something. What I can say is that I agree with this declaration. I repeat, we are talking about a situation that occurred here in Spain. If there are no explanations, it means that there is a problem and if there is explanations, it means that there is a problem. A problem that someone has to solve». Pressure intensifies on institutions in Spain.
