The controversy in the Spanish capital has not detained after the tie between the Real Madrid and Seville (2-2) in Valdebebas, in the corresponding duel to the day 35 of LaLiga Santander. The crash was starred by repeated interventions of the VAR that finished with decisions against of the 'merengues', those who finished the indignant clash and commanding 'indirect' to Martínez Munuera and all the referee's body by his actions.

However, the lloros have not served of at all and equally have signed a tie that hampers them his options by the title, in front of a Seville that does not want to give by defeated to fault of three days for the end of the season. One of the big managers of this is Ivan Rakitic, ex player of the FC Barcelona, that has dressed several times of hero to help to that LaLiga follow open (caused a penal, also, around the middle of April in front of the Athletic) and this Sunday gave an assistance to Fernando for the 0-1 and converted a so much from the eleven metres for the 1-2.

In the microphones of 'Movistar', the Croatian midfield player aimed that "it was penalti clear, was hand. We can begin to speak of this, of how interprets it each one, but if it is hand is hand; it gives the same if it is voluntary or no. It is a bit of bad luck for them, but the referee has done the correct", explained.

And it is that the so much of Rakitic came preceded of the most controversial action of the meeting, by a penal of Éder Militãor that signalled Martínez Munuera, but that generated a lot of annoyance in the players of the Real Madrid. In the party, after the tie of Marco Asensio, the group directed by Zinedine Zidane tightened and looked for the advantage, with an opportunity of gold after a contragolpe that finished with Karim Benzema demolished in the area by Bono, guardameta of the Seville, by what pitó penal in favour of the madridistas.

Nevertheless, from the VAR recommended him to the main referee review the played previous by a possible hand inside the area of Thibaut Courtois. Like this then , Martínez rectified and finished giving the penal to the Seville, by a hand of Éder Militãor after the exit of a favourable corner for the ones of Julen Lopetegui. The Brazilian had his hand in an unnatural position, to the height of the shoulder, and put in tray the so much of the hispalenses, with Ivan Rakitic that did not fail from the eleven metres in front of the put Belgian.

Finally, Rakitic has said that "today it has benefited us and does at all did not help us a lot. For my is quite easy, if it is hand is hand. If it changes the direction of the ball, and if besides it goes in direction to the goal, for me there is not doubt any", commented.

The options of the Seville

The ex culé also has referred to the options of his team to carry the title. At present, they occupy the fourth position of the classification, to six points of the leadership, where is the Athletic of Madrid (77 vs. 71), by what will litigate to the end to see if they achieve to give a big surprise in the Spanish championship.

The Croat has aimed that in Valdebebas "were more near to win this party, but did a big first part and they were better in the second. They have seen two of the best teams of the league and that is our aim, the litigate with the best".
