The president of Barça, Laporta, was dissatisfied with the performance of the referees and confronted them right after the game. The referee’s match report described the Barca president entering their locker room and “repeatedly requesting explanations about certain match situations.” Laporta was thereafter “invited to leave without incident.”
The Barca boss did not comment on the officials this time around, though, as he instead pointed to missed chances in the Madrid loss. “Sometimes you find yourselves on a bad run, but luckily it’s just three points,” he told a press conference. “We tried, we showed faith. It was a good chance to stay top of La Liga, it just was not to be.
“We did not take advantage of the moments when we were on top. Madrid defended well, and the feeling is we’re on a bad run and nothing is coming off.”Jamb Result
