Tebas defends Ref Decisions in Madrid Derby
Javier Tebas, president of La Liga, affirmed that Real Madrid's 1-2 loss to Atlético Madrid in the derby was not due to refereeing decisions, and he refused to assign blame to the referee. He pointed out that some decisions, such as the red card shown to Atlético's defender, were correct, while Cristian Romero's tackle was not deserving of a red card, and the speed of the footage explained the lack of a harsher decision. Tebas also criticized Real Madrid's official media channel for publishing materials criticizing the referees' performance, emphasizing that media pressure on referees needs ethical guidelines. Additionally, Real Madrid's coach, José Mourinho, had questioned the referee's ability and the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system after the team's loss in the derby, fueling further debate about refereeing decisions and the club's conduct towards the officiating authority.
