Marcelino did not bite his tongue after the game. Getafe tied after a penalty awarded to Albiol, for slapping Bertug, and the yellow coach believes that this situation occurred due to the desire that the VAR referee, Figueroa Vázquez, had to leave his mark on the match.
Penalty: “The referee had been blowing very well. He is next to the play, the ball goes somewhere else and a referee arrives in the VAR who is down. How many of these penalties can be whistled in a match? But the man from the “VAR and calls him and tells him it’s a penalty.”
Figueroa Vazquez: “If you are relegated it is because you are not very good”
VAR incidence: “He calls the referee, just for the sake of prominence and lets the referee whistle. I am convinced that if instead of a young referee it had been a more expert referee he would not have called him.”

García Verdura’s decision: “It seems ridiculous to me, but well, the referee has acted out of corporatism, which is what we usually see and the VAR referee has been the protagonist of something that did not happen, but that he wanted to happen,” he harshly denounced.
Result: “The point is good, but you miss two. But how it happened makes you upset,”
