Commonwealth-Zidane 'argument' on penalty issue


 


Barcelona manager Ronald Koeman has expressed his anger against the referee after a 1-2 defeat in El Clasico against Real Madrid. Martin Braithwaite fell into Real's penalty box in the 61st minute of Saturday's match. According to the Bara camp, Real's Ferland Mendy pulled Braithwaite by the hand. But the referee did not give a penalty.


 Barcelona fans must have seen how the referee's two decisions went against us," Coman said angrily after the match. We have been deprived of guaranteed penalties. Second, the connection time was only four minutes. "


 Barcelona lost 1-3 at home last October in El Clasico, the first leg of La Liga this season. Real captain Sergio Ramos scored from the penalty spot in that match. The debate was not less. "Once again, we have to accept everything," Koeman said.

Real manager Zinedine Zidane, however, stood by the referee. "There was nothing wrong with the referee's decision," he said sarcastically. "We didn't play well in the first half. There were problems in both defense and attack. The referee certainly cannot be blamed for that. We won as a worthy team. "


"If the referee says there was no penalty, then that's fine. Because none of us were on the field. "
