Barcelona went the top of La Liga on Monday evening after beating Rayo Vallecano with 1-0, although there were several Flashpoints moment in the match in the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Company with which spectators did not agree.
The large concentrated on non-bumps of a goal scored by Rayo-wing player Jorge de Frutos. Just before the break he found the back of the net, but it was canceled by referee Mario Melero Lopez after it was considered that Randy Nteka, who was sidelined when the ball was played for the Frutos, had hindered Barcelona defender Inigo Martinez.
Rayo also remained disappointed about the decision not to get a penalty after a Hector Fort shirt had drawn to Abdul Mumin. But despite this, several club officials chose not to go after Melero Lopez, even though MD said that there has been 'scandal' in the past in similar situations.
Rayo head coach Inigo Perez was diplomatic about the incidents when he spoke to the media after the game, as he chose to show sympathy for Melero Lopez.
“I will always try to stay out of a referee decision, regardless of whether it is one in favor of another. I can empathize with them a lot and I will not exceed that line, although I may have my opinion. I understand that the referee was going to judge the penalty action – although I have my opinion, I don't want to pronounce myself. “
Raul Martin Presa, president of Rayo, also chose not to go after Melero Lopez, although he expressed some indignation with at least one of the decisions that made his side.
“If Rayo has lost it, it is not because of the referees, it is because they have scored one goal less than Barcelona. With the audio that you played (for the fine of Barcelona), I think that the interpretation of the referee is correct, but the goal of the Frutos is a positional offside, so it should not be offside.
“I never judge the referees, although they have not been very successful. I do not understand why they warned in one action in the VAR and not in others, because at least they would have been revised. But congratulations to Barcelona with the victory. “
