Sevilla FC Complains to LaLiga After Loss to Real Madrid
Sevilla FC lodged a formal complaint to LaLiga following their 4-1 defeat to Real Madrid on October 21. The club expressed dissatisfaction with the refereeing decisions that they believe disadvantaged them during the match at the Bernabeú.
Sevilla claimed that crucial actions were not replayed sufficiently, while a penalty awarded to Real Madrid against Kylian Mbappe was shown multiple times from various angles. Sevilla's coach, Luis Garcia Plaza, was particularly upset that Arda Güler was not sent off for an elbow on Gerard “Peque” Fernandez when the score was still 0-0, arguing that his team was denied the opportunity to compete with an advantage of 11 against 10 players.
Güler later scored the opening goal in the 30th minute. Sevilla's statement criticized the unequal coverage of decisive moments in the broadcast, emphasizing the need for transparency in VAR reviews and adherence to LaLiga's production criteria.
