The referee's favours to the Real Madrid are a constant in the Spanish football, but in the beginning of the 2023/24 the parcialidad of the referees to the whites has been scandalous. In each one of the first four days of LaLiga, at least a referee's controversy has favoured to the ones of Carlo Ancelotti, leaders of the tournament with puntaje perfect thanks to the favours of the referees.

And it is that, from the penalti no sanctioned of Éder Militao on Unai Gómez in the first part of the inaugural day in Saint Mamés, the arbitration has worked faithfully in favour of the 'merengues'. On the minute 38 of the Bilbao-Madrid, Gil Manzano overlooked a fault of the defender braisleño, already with the party 0-2 in favour of the visitors. In the day 2, Sánchez Martínez followed suit validating a goal of Jude Bellingham where the mediocentro English went down the balloon with the right arm.

Celtic and Getafe also suffered to the Spanish arbitration

In the third date, the Celtic of Vigo saw how the collegiate Isidro Díaz of Mere invalidated a legal goal in the first action of the party by a presumptive fault on Kepa. Any of the repetitions evidenció a load on the goalkeeper yielded by Chelsea, but the VAR gave the right to the main judge and the goal did not go up to the marker. At the end, a goal of Bellingham of head gave him the triumph to the whites.

And, in the debut of the Madrid this season in Santiago Bernabéu, Mario Melero López could not do remain badly to the Spanish arbitration. The malagueño rectified, to instances of the VAR, a penalti invented on Joselu in the first part, but overlooked a very clear iron on Borja Mayoral that deserved expulsion. In the complement, the VAR did the 'dress fat' to the offside of Joselu, validating the so much of the tie. To put the guinda, Melero López gave nine minutes of addition, giving sufficient time to the venues to consummate the traced back. Like this it wins the Madrid.
