The referee for the Copa del Rey final on Saturday revealed the level of pressure officials have been receiving from Real Madrid’s TV channel this season.
The “Clasico final” between Los Blancos and rivals Barcelona in Seville will be led by Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea on Saturday (21:00 BST kick-off).
He is the most recent referee to be attacked on Real Madrid TV this season, though.
It’s completely wrong when a child of yours goes to school and is told by other students that his father is a “thief” and then comes home crying, according to De Burgos Bengoetxea, an emotional De Burgos.
What I do is instruct my son in the way that, like any sportsperson, his father is honest and above all, who is also honest.
Many of our colleagues, “It’s not right what we are going through, both at the grassroots level and in professional football.”
Everyone should consider where we want to go, what we want from football and sport, and what we want.
De Burgos Bengoetxea, who also serves on the Uefa club and international competitions, is formerly in charge of Clasico encounters.
Officials may take action over Real Madrid TV’s broadcasts, according to Pablo Gonzalez Fuertes, who will serve as the video assistant referee (VAR) for the final.
Have no doubt that we will need to begin implementing much stricter measures than we currently do, he continued.
What is happening, we will not allow it to continue. You’ll hear from us soon.
Because we won’t continue to put up with what we are putting up, we are going to make history.
La Liga president Javier Tebas claimed Real Madrid had “lost their head” following the letter of complaint from February that came after Espanyol lost 1-0.
