Osasuna Goalkeeper Sergio Herrera Expresses Frustration over Supercopa Semi-final Loss to Barcelona
Osasuna goalkeeper Sergio Herrera voiced his frustration following his team’s defeat to Barcelona in the Spanish Supercopa semi-final, highlighting perceived officiating biases.
In the aftermath of the game, Herrera expressed his displeasure, stating, “This competition is clearly designed for Barça or Madrid to win. It’s obvious, they are the teams that generate the most money. Whoever disagrees does not watch football.”
The discontent builds on the comments made by Osasuna’s David Garcia, who criticized what he perceived as an unfairly gained lead by Barcelona. Garcia specifically pointed to a challenge on Jose Arnaiz by Andreas Christensen, which VAR thoroughly reviewed, ultimately determining that no foul had occurred in the build-up to the goal.
Despite the grievances raised by Osasuna players, the result stands, and Barcelona secured a legitimate victory, earning the right to compete against Real Madrid in the SuperCopa final. The clash promises to be a thrilling encounter as the two giants vie for the coveted title.
