Spanish football quickly followed FIFA in 2018 and decided shortly afterwards to add VAR to LaLiga, a decision that has already prevented more than two dozen illegal goals from Real Madrid
The vídeoarbitraje arrived in 2018 to the football of elite to remain and turn into a tool so that teams and interested could feel calmer with regard to not continuing seeing errors garrafales of the referees in played of expulsion or offside, especially. Although the controversy has not been absent of the system VAR these years, since to end of accounts continues handling under the interpretation of each referee that was at the top of the party, himself that has given tangible results regarding avoiding some injustices.
Like this it has been the case of several goals that the Real Madrid had celebrated in first instance and that finally did not finish going up to the marker, as sucedió this Sunday in Santiago Bernabéu in front of the Seville. Lucas Vázquez had advanced to his after a big pass of Vinicius from the left, but that played had been preceded by a clear infringement of Nacho, the one who finish recovering the possession when doing a direct entrance to the ankle of In-Nesyri.
The party of the Madrid had to go in another direction thanks to the VAR
The referee of the party in that moment -since it finish going out of the party by injury to the 62'-, Díaz of Mere, did not observe infringement in direct and was the room VOR the one who left him know that it had to review the played and interpret if the contact of Nacho was the sufficiently important to cancel the possible 1-0 of the Madrid. Like this it finish being by part of the referee of the party, elevating like this to 27 the illegal goals that would have achieved to celebrate the Madrid since LaLiga decided to implement the VAR in the competition.
Like this it reviewed it the expert in statistics, 'MisterChip', in his account of X, aiming that that so much of Lucas that it did not go up to the marker expanded the already big existent advantage of the white group in the first place of goals that in first instance had been celebrated and after the intervention of the VAR all finish in infringement or offside previous. This occasion 27 in which the vídeoarbitraje finishes 'saving' to LaLiga surpasses by 11 to the second figure, of 16 for the Seville, whereas the FC Barcelona situates in the seventh position with 11 goals cancelled, same quantity that Espanyol, Valladolid and Villarreal.

14 Athletic of Madrid
14 Valency
13 Real Sociedad

The reality is that some of these goals cancelled later to the Madrid have the 'rule' of the offside in which now the assistants have to leave the played and expect the review of the VAR. But also like sucedió this Sunday exist a lot of actions that the referees simply do not observe or decide not signalling of rigorous way.
