The referee Ignacio Iglesias Villanueva and 5 different VAR referees have been fired by the Spanish Football Federation and the Technical Committee of Referees after the racist controversy at Mestalla. Iglesias Villanueva has been criticized for choosing the picture that led to Vinicius’s expulsion after a brawl between a number of gamers and through which he was not the one one who dedicated unsportsmanlike actions. However, he was the one one compelled off the sphere.
Iglesias Villanueva didn’t present the referee who was directing the match, De Burgos Bengoetxea, one other picture through which the Valencian participant Hugo Duro grabbed Vicinius tightly by the neck.
Real Madrid charged in opposition to video arbitration in its second assertion, through which it accused Iglesias Villanueva of providing “biased” pictures. It is the primary time to see that the VAR, a device to enhance the decision-making capability of the referees, is critically marked by a partial efficiency.
