Joan Laporta, president of Barcelona, made the assertion earlier this week that Real Madrid are often favored in La Liga and that others are not treated fairly, leading Carlo Ancelotti to respond, citing the Negreira case.
In the previous matchday, Los Blancos were down 2-0 after the first 45 minutes. However, with the help of three instances of VAR, they were able to turn it around and win 3-2.
