In Real Madrid’s victory against Deportivo Alavés (3-2) on Tuesday in La Liga, four yellow cards were distributed by Alejandro Muñíz Ruiz, the match referee. These refereeing decisions were strongly criticized by the Merengue club’s television channel: ” Shitty refereeing. Abuse of authority, provocative and arrogant attitude. Something is brewing. It is not bad refereeing, it is suspect refereeing (…) Real Madrid is facing a regime. Vinicius is stopped by kicks and receives a yellow card. It is the Liga de Tebas in which Madrid starts with four cards. The Clásico is approaching. The Madrilenians are unbeaten in 39 games and on Sunday they play the derby, a match in which, last year, they had to benefit from three penalties ” protested the journalists of RMTVin comments relayed by AS.
” When we knew that Muñiz Ruiz would referee this match, we knew straight away what was going to happen. Such a performance is suspect and when you make a mistake, the cards are as they are. Thanks to this type of refereeing, in very few days there will be players who miss matches. That self-sufficiency or that provocative authority on the pitch that punishes players who are the object of violent tackles by the opponent. You are constantly penalized. It seems that the most knowledgeable players are the ones who play the best: Modríc, Bellingham… » Real Madrid are in second place in the Spanish league standings, with one game more than the leader, FC Barcelona.
