Real Madrid -goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois fueled the flames of the complaints of Atletico Madrid after their defeat in the Champions League round of 16, when controversy appeared during the final of the game. The 'double touch' penalty from Julian Alvarez is fiercely debating, but there was nothing to discuss for Courtois.
The Belgian keeper explained Relo that he noticed that Alvarez had touched the ball twice in real time.
“The moment he shoots, I think he will hit it twice. I told the referee and then the linesman. He told me that they keep an eye on him because everyone keeps an eye on him. '
Courtois was informed of the complaints of Atletico manager Diego Simeone, who asked the press room if someone had seen the double touch and assured that he had seen nothing like that.
“I am tired of this constant victimization, always crying for things like this. The referees don't want anyone in Spain or in Europe. They saw it clearly and they blew their whistle. They are human and can make mistakes, but they had to see it clearly from the VAR room, which has many images. “
For the good degree, he criticized the lack of ambition of Simeone and Atletico.
“If you win 1-0 from the first minute and then don't try to get the second, that's probably the mistake.”
Although no clear images were available at the time, new images emerged where it seems that Alvarez's left foot has influenced the ball before its right. Atletico remains furious that, in view of the available images, it is far from the clear and obvious error that the VAR must intervene.
Many have quickly demonstrated that no club in Spain was more vocal in their complaints about referees than Real Madrid, who sent a public letter to the Royal Spanish football federation less than two months ago and complained that the competition had been manipulated against them and had cost titles of Real Madrid.
