đ¨ Gerard PiquĂŠ’s comments on yesterdayâs events đ:
đ “What happened at the Vallecano stadium was disgraceful. The refereeing decisions were shocking, but the victory masked the issues and made everyone forget. Thatâs not logical.”
đ “A Vallecano player handled the ball in the penalty area, but the referee didn’t award a penalty, treating it like a handball. VAR was present but ignored the incident.”
đ “Additionally, a Vallecano player tackled Olmoâs leg without touching the ball, which was clear to everyone, but no action was taken.”
đ “I believe what happened was intentional due to the poor decision on Pedriâs leg, where the referee only gave a yellow card and didnât check VAR.”
đ “Itâs obvious they want us to falter. It was apparent when they assigned Manzano for this round, and now they’ve chosen Grado, the same referee who failed to count Lamineâs goal in the last Clasico despite it crossing the line. The capital doesnât want Barcelona to keep winning.”
