By db-admin
DBasia.news – Real Madrid successfully earned full points in the seventh week of La Liga 2020/21. It felt special because they successfully defeated Barcelona in a match titled El Clasico at Camp Nou, Saturday (24/10), WIB with a score of 3-1
But the spotlight deserves to be on Ramos’ second goal, which was scored in the 63rd minute through the white spot. The referee’s decision to award a penalty to Madrid was the cause.
Juan Martinez Munuera, who was the referee, gave a penalty to Madrid after seeing VAR. Clement Lenglet is considered to have violated Ramos in the forbidden box in a moment to welcome a free kick.
But the decision was protested by Barcelona coach, Ronald Koeman. According to him, it was Ramos who pulled Lenglet first before finally falling.
Koeman indeed insinuated that Madrid seemed too have beeen easily awarded a penalty by the referee. This phenomenon has happened since last season.
“For me, it’s not a penalty. I hope they (LaLiga) can explain to me about using VAR in Spain because VAR can be great, but for all teams,” said Koeman after the match.
“It’s normal for Real Madrid players to do their best so the referee awarded a penalty. I don’t want to talk about this penalty again. “
Ramos’s penalty did affect the game. Before that happened, the two teams still drew 1-1.
Barcelona tried to catch up in the remaining matches. But Modric’s late goal buried the Blaugrana’s hopes.
Ramos, who was the main actor in the incident, tried to respond to Koeman’s accusations. He felt he deserved a penalty for being violated by Lenglet.
“For me, the penalty was very clear. The referee and VAR are there to help all clubs,” replied Ramos shortly.
