He FC Barcelona He has not escaped referee controversies so far this season. The Barça entity has been a ‘victim’ of more than questionable decisions by the judges in the first eight days of LaLiga Santanderwhere the rigor of the referees seems to have increased against the Barça team at specific and convenient moments.
This has been evident in the penalty calls, where the culés have been awarded two penalties in favor of two against. The first of them, against Athletic Club on the second day of the local championship, which was scored by Jungle Sancetwhile in the duel against Osasuna last Sunday the second took place, exchanged for a goal by Ante Budimir.
A statistic that becomes even more relevant if we take into account that in the last 15 games, at Barça They have been awarded four penalties, while in the previous 77 they were ‘only’ sanctioned with three maximum penalties.
It all started on matchday 32 of the 23/24 season, when in the Classic against Real Madrid at the Bernabéu (3-2), César Soto Grado gave a penalty to the meringues which, at that moment, tied the score at 1. Later, on matchday 33 against the Valencia in Montjuïc (4-2), Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea scored the second penalty against the Blaugranas last season to give the Che team a momentary advantage, which would ultimately end up falling to those led, at that time, by Xavi.
