offside, red against Gavi… the Madrid press annoyed by the arbitration of the Clasico

The Madrid press wonders about the offside for a few millimeters of Marco Asensio and plague against the leniency towards Gavi during the Clascio won by Barça against Real Madrid (2-1).

Real Madrid has very strongly compromised its chances of retaining its title of champion of Spain by losing on the ground of FC Barcelona (2-1), Sunday during the Clasico. And some decisions leave a bitter taste in the Madrid press, including that of not having sanctioned Gavi. The young midfielder charged Dani Ceballos (89th) completely uninterested in the action in progress.

“One millimeter from La Liga”

His gesture came as a kind of revenge against the Madrid midfielder who had just briefly clashed with Robert Lewandowski. This shoulder strike out of any game action escaped the referee and it annoys some consultants who believe it deserved a red card.

Another action is at the center of the discussions at the end of the meeting: that of the goal denied to Marco Asensio in the 82nd minute of play. The Madrid striker had restored the advantage to his team at the reception of Daniel Carvajal but its realization was finally canceled for a microscopic offside, whose revealing images did not really convince Carlo Ancelotti. “We did not win this match for an offside on which we still have doubts, launched the Italian coach. We return to Madrid with doubts.”

Marca made its front page this Monday on this fact of the game. “One millimeter from La Liga”, displaying the lines of the revealer. The newspaper recounts the skirmish between Carlo Ancelotti and Xavi on this subject and also points to the behavior of Camp Nou which launched hostile chants against Vinicius.

For As, the title race is “over” for Real. The newspaper is very severe in its rating of players by inflicting a 0/10 on Karim Benzema (Modric gets a 2). On the Catalan side, the mood is milder with this success which launches Barça towards the title. Mundo Deportivo are in ‘ecstasy’ this Monday morning. The Sport newspaper is for its part in “delirium”
