Barcelona president, Joan Laporta has come out to label VAR a disgrace. This is coming after Real Madrid’s controversial win over Almeria, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, it is clear that what happened at the Bernabeu was a disgrace, and the refereeing collective has to respond to a series of pressures that have occurred throughout the season with the refs.

Laporta added that if questioned are not answered soon, they will leave the rest of La Liga uneasy.
His words, “What happened at the Bernabeu was a disgrace. I think that the refereeing collective has to respond to a series of pressures that have occurred throughout the season with the referees. If they do not respond, they leave us very uneasy. Because we understand that there is an abandonment of functions.
We feel stronger and more cohesive, but what we want is for there to be sporting rewards and on a day that we could have cut points [i.e. Madrid’s lead over them in the table], due to a refereeing decision, due to a VAR re-refereeing, it has not happened. It feels stronger and we have more unity in the dressing room, and we also see that we are recovering the injured players. Marc-Andre [Ter Stegen] will soon be able to rejoin [the squad]. We have players of excellent quality like Robert [Lewandowski] and all those who make up the Barca first team. I’m very optimistic because I think we’ll get our reward and that the other rivals are going to stumble like we stumbled at the beginning of the season. What we are doing is working, fighting day by day, to stay in all the competitions to try and win them.”
WOW.
