Through social media, they posted a series of messages with criticisms of referee Munuera Montero’s decisions. They questioned several calls. “The flying kick. Not a foul”, they said about a challenge by Dani Carvajal. They also pointed to a fall by Vinicius, which they described as “the classic dive”.
They also complained about a foul on Marcos Llorente inside the box that was not called. “It felt like a train hit me”, the player himself had said after the match.
In their response, Atlético also questioned the overall refereeing standard. “How can a derby end with only two fouls?”, they asked. The complaint comes after the Referees’ Technical Committee backed the decisions made during the match.
