The word lordship is not heard in Chamartín, so used before to synthesize the elegance and greatness of Real Madrid in the good and, above all, in the bad times. Nor is the traditional hymn of the club in vogue, the one who speaks of “respect” and describes the team as “Knight of Honor” that “when he loses shakes hand without envy or resentment.” Now, and for more than a decade, the entity chaired by Florentino Pérez has turned the course towards a victimist speech covered by some powerful and hermetic media speakers. This drift has completed, following the deserving kick from Romero to Mbappé, with a formal protest to the Federation on an “corrupted” arbitration system and that “manipulates” to “induce erroneous decisions against” whites.
“I am a little tired that, for example, they give me a list with 13 errors of the referee and they want me to go out to attack the referee and defend my team. I want people to defend my team, not always me (…) I prefer to ask for a meeting with the president, ”said José Mourinho, paper in hand with the alleged failures of Real Madrid-Sevilla referee, in December 2010. That duel, resorted to Madrid’s triumph (1-0), was directed by Clos Gómez, currently responsible for the VAR and one of those indicated by the club with the president of the referees (CTA), Medina Cantalejo.
The speech against the referees began with Mourinho, and Ancelotti, in the club line, has had to inherit it
The complaints of the Portuguese, which occurred days after their Madrid fell 5-0 against Barça, were the beginning of a long list of reproaches to the members. The manor, who among other things defends not to talk about the referees, even if the whites feel harmed, was gradually overlapping. Mourinho helped modulate the institutional message, bosted by the related media, and took the keys of the club (read the banner “Your finger points to us the way”). ‘The Special One’ opted for a physical game, with several actions of his pupils on the verge of aggression against the eternal rival, and used his charisma before the microphones, the “fucking master” of the press conferences, to erode the domain from Barça de Guardiola.
After the Portuguese stage, Madrid has won six Champions, the last last year, but the victimist suddenly remains. Zidane, a calm coach, normally alien to controversies and defender of the Manido “I do not talk about the referees”, also complained about the members in their two stages on the bench of the Bernabéu.
The controversial lack of Carlos Romero to Kylian Mbappé.
A similar mutation has lived Ancelotti. The Italian, with the elegant label in his speech, has aligned without hesitation with the line of the club, fed unscrupulously day and day also by Real Madrid TV. The channel, however, obviates the arbitration errors in its favor, as in the Cup tie against Celta, and does not take into account the ten penalties in favor in the League for any against, an unparalleled fact in Europe. “Something inexplicable has happened. What the statement asks is an explanation and it seems correct. It’s time to change something, ”said Ancelotti in the previous one of a cup duel today against Leganés (21h) engulfed by the arbitration controversy.
The war white posture against the Federation, perhaps in response to a popular feeling fueled by the Madrid media, contrasts with the silence for the controversial registration of Olmo in Barça and with the warm position in the Negreira case, despite presenting itself as particular accusation in the trial. Equally surprising was the response of the federation to the complaints. “We deeply regret the tone and severity of the accusations (…) we understand that there may be discrepancies in certain decisions, but we trust that all parties act with responsibility and respect,” he said, without appointing Madrid and without a threat of sanction , the body chaired by Rafael Louzán, who today will be aware of the position of the Supreme on his possible disqualification.
Something inexplicable has happened. What the statement asks is an explanation and it seems correct. It’s time to change something “
Barça has been branded for decades as a victimist club, also at the time of Negreira. Now, Madrid, who defended the opposite, flag bearer of the manor, is a leader in the struggle to take over that doubtful honor.
