They presume the referees that a good arbitration goes through not being the protagonist. The less he talks about his task and the more unnoticed the game, it is often synonymous with success. They tried yesterday with all their forces of Burgos Bengoetxea, visibly nervous since before the start of the game, and González Fuertes, disappeared in the final until the 96th minute, but they did not succeed. In his intention to whistle as little as possible to not leave in the photo, the one that was going to appear anyway in Real Madrid TV, they became Poncio Pilatos to wash their hands in innumerable plays, who always had as a common denominator to a Real Madrid defender hitting an attacker of Barça at the wrong time and, once even, within the white area.
He got into the mouth of the wolf of Burgos Bengoetxea the day before and could no longer get out of it. The pressure swallowed the referee and in key moments he was conditioned for having been the great protagonist on the day he wanted to be. In his work he was excessively lax, for being generous, with those whom he had criticized. In each play the intention to seem impartial, but always granting that slight advantage to the whites, which of course did not cease in their protests, even had much more than shut up. The only time he was brave in the first half to apply the justice he owed was to admonish Carlo Ancelotti.
Burgos Bengoetxea was very lax before the multiple entries of the whites in the first half
With the sainete of the previous days Madrid got the referee to be fully intimidated. Thanks to this, the whites enjoyed total impunity to paste: Lucas Vázquez nailed the tacos in the raphinha ankle, Rüdiger took Olmo ahead, also Astencio knocked down the Barça midfielder without disheveled. “Follow, continue.”
Half an hour, Barça already knew that he had one more enemy in the referee. De Burgos was exempted again in a lack of tchouaméni on Olmo on the front. Of course, he did not hesitate to admonish Gerard Martín after a foul that he didn’t even see.
Real Madrid enjoyed impunity to hit and despite this he ended up trying to assault the referee
The show continued with an entry from Fran Garcia at the wrong time on Lamine Yamal. Although one of the crown jewels, perhaps the play that will come out in all memes, was a grip from Ceballos to Cubarsí when he tried to finish in the area. The white player almost starts the shirt to the Blaugrana central. The Andalusian also deserved the red in a swipe without the ball to Lamine Yamal. ‘Follow, continue,’ he applied again.
And while Burgos managed not to anger the whites, González Fuertes, the main agitator in the press conference the day before Real Madrid TV, was not so brave during the game in two plays that could finish it much earlier. The first, the grab commented to Cubarsí. The second, a kick by Rüdiger who knocked Ferran Torres when he tried to control the ball in the area. Of course, in the 96 minute he appeared to deny a penalty, this time fairly, to Raphinha. There he did have the promised courage again the day before.
González Fuertes, who ate two penalties, was more brave at the press conference than yesterday
And despite all this, neither from Burgos nor González Fuertes will fight from the criticism of Real Madrid. Lucas Vázquez and Vinícius were given a breakthrough when jumping into the field to protest a clear fault from Mbappé to seconds from the end. Rüdiger even launched a bottle of water and if not for a staff member would have gone for him. Madrid will continue with its offensive and the referees will have it very difficult to find the desired impartial. As much as they say. Good Theater. Or of the bad.
