Refereeing v Atletico ‘a robbery’ – Barca’s Raphinha

Barcelona forward Raphinha has branded the refereeing in their Champions League quarter-final defeat to Atletico Madrid “a robbery.” Barca exited 3–2 on aggregate despite a 2–1 win in Tuesday’s second leg, having lost the first leg 2–0 at home. In both matches a Barcelona defender was sent off after a yellow card was upgraded to red when the referee, on VAR advice, reviewed a potential denial of a goalscoring opportunity on the pitchside monitor. Pau Cubarsi was dismissed by Istvan Kovacs in the first leg, while fellow defender Eric Garcia was sent off by French referee Clement Turpin in the second. Kovacs and video assistant referee Christian Dingert were also criticised by Barcelona after they allowed play to continue when Atletico defender Marc Pubill handled the ball in his own penalty area from what appeared to be a goal-kick situation.

UEFA reject Barca handball complaint before Atletico return

UEFA has rejected Barcelona’s complaint over a controversial handball incident in their Champions League quarter‑final first leg defeat to Atletico Madrid, just hours before the return leg. Atletico won the first game 2–0 at Camp Nou, but Barcelona were furious that no penalty was awarded when defender Marc Pubill appeared to handle the ball after receiving what looked like a goal kick inside the area. “After the first leg, Barcelona filed a protest relating to a referee decision.

The Catalan club had described the decision not to give a spot kick as a “major error” that affected the outcome of the match and criticised the fact that Romanian referee Istvan Kovacs was not asked by VAR to review […]

Yamal tells Barcelona: sign ‘red‑hot’ Osimhen

Barcelona teenage star Lamine Yamal has reportedly urged the club’s hierarchy to sign Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen in the summer transfer window. According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, the 18‑year‑old winger believes Osimhen would transform Barcelona’s attack next season and has personally backed the Nigerian’s arrival. Yamal is said to have told club chiefs that Osimhen’s movement, pace and physicality would stretch opposition defences and ease the pressure on him in the final third. He reportedly argued that the striker’s constant runs in behind would create more space and chances for Barcelona’s creative players. Barcelona are planning for life after veteran forward Robert Lewandowski, whose contract is due to expire at the end of the season. With Ferran Torres also linked with a possible exit, the Catalan giants are actively assessing options to lead their frontline. Osimhen, 27, has been […]
