That was just a shameful decision.
Jonathan was a stone wall penalty, I have no doubt it would be whistled if it was a Real Madrid player.
Comedy night courtesy of La Liga refs. After not giving a clear pen for Pepe's foul on Johnathan, the ref gives a pen for Real after a Benzema dive.
Btw, I'm surprised it took 25 minutes until Real's game is mentioned.
New record?
Yes. Notice how the refs carefully discipline away team with whistling every contact/issuing cards and verbal warnings so no harsh fouling tactics could be implemented (which is a go-to strategy for any small team when facing Barca/RM).It's very hard to play on Bernabeu, that's for sure. For a variety of reasons. First would be that you don't usually get big decisions going your way if you're not a big team.
Bale's ball control...
I wouldn't be surprised if the ref gives Ronaldo the chance to get revenge on that penalty spot. What nerve on that white dot, to defy his master in such an embarassing way...
