Victory Wasn't Enough: The controversial decisions Real Madrid TV claims cost them more

Less than 24 hours after clinching 2-1 win over Barcelona in Sunday’s El Clasico, Real Madrid’s official TV channel has launched fierce attack on the match officials accusing them of clear mistakes that allegedly favoured their rivals.

Despite the victory which strengthened Real Madrid’s lead at the top of La Liga with 27 point, five ahead of Barca, the club’s media arm aired special segment highlighting what it described as "controversial & inconsistent" refereeing decisions throughout the match.

The report specifically pointed to several incidents in which Madrid claim referee Jose Maria Sanchez Martinez and the VAR team failed to act correctly including challenges on Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior that went unpunished.

The tone of the broadcast was unusually sharp accusing the officiating crew of applying "double standards" in key moments.
