Real Madrid TV Fallout: Referee for Barça – Getafe Clash Becomes Latest Controversy

Real Madrid TV’s Latest ‘Victim’: Referee for Barça – Getafe Clash The Spanish Football Federation has revealed the refereeing assignments for Matchday 26 of La Liga EA Sports. FC Barcelona will face Getafe at Montjuïc, with the match referee being the latest ‘victim’ of Real Madrid TV, Alejandro Muñiz Ruiz, and Prieto Iglesias in charge of VAR. The 32-year-old Galician referee officiated the Rayo Vallecano – Real Madrid match last weekend, where the Whites struggled to secure a win, and controversy ensued. Muñiz Ruiz awarded a clear penalty to the home team and issued a double yellow card to Carvajal, resulting in his expulsion.

“Allowing the dirtiness from Rayo in the game. A poor performance,” stated media outlets affiliated with the white club after the draw in Vallecas. Madridistas complained about the referee’s leniency towards the home team’s tackles. Furthermore, Muñiz Ruiz’s decisions led to Carvajal’s expulsion and a fifth yellow card for Camavinga, both of whom will miss the upcoming match against Sevilla.
