The VAR has been the fellow that never fails him to the Real Madrid, but today were not able to brake the disaster of the madridistas in The Rosaleda, although they tried it. At the end, neither with the videoarbitraje in favour, as always, the madridistas were able to plant in front of an Athletic of Bilbao that yes it knew to take advantage of the errors of the rival and that remained ordered when the whites approached to the area defended by Unai Simón.

The Madrid sinned by fault of puntería and the 'lions' believed to the end to achieve the pass to the final of the Supercopa of Spain, this Sunday, in front of the FC Barcelona in The Cartuja. The two goals of Raúl García in the first-half certified the positive effects of Marcelino like trainer of the team and took out to relucir all the weaknesses of the Real Madrid.

Although it is true that they were two errors of Lucas Vázquez those that ocasionaron the two so many of García, went the defensive order and capacity of replegarse what has carried to the Athletic to the final, without referee's helps. To difference, the group directed by Zinedine Zidane suffered during all the meeting and left multiple doubts regarding the creation of game, after the rojiblancos achieved to neutralise to Luka Modric completely.

The reality is that, without the intervention of the VAR, the history had been much more sad for the picture merengue. In the minute 73, the videoarbitraje took part to validate a goal of Karim Benzema, in possible position irreglamentaria, that supposed the tie of the meeting. The controversy centred after the technology provided the images with which the so much of the ariete French went up to the marker. In them, the lines were thrown from the feet of Casemiro, that had given the pass to Benzema, and no from the balloon that had put in doubt the validity of the played.

What understood from the VAR, and later the main referee of the meeting, went that the forward madridista was in statutory position by a foot of the defender of the Athletic Bilbao, Unai Simón, that enabled the played. In definite, the so much went up to the electronic, but was not sufficient so that the Real Madrid attained to trace back.

Controversial action in the extra time

To consequence of different lacking and actions that retardaron the party, the referee signalled six minutes of extra time. The Real Madrid dumped entirely to the attack to try equalise the meeting and achieve the longed for extention and like this trace back.

In the last played of the party, after an approach of the merengues to the area defended by Unai Simón, the VAR reviewed a possible hand inside the area, after the balloon hit in the shoulder of Unai García. From the videoarbitraje did not penalise the action, but the Madrid insisted in that it was penal. After the party, Marco Asensio aimed that "in the hand gives him. No if for penalti or no. Have to see it, but in the hand gives him".
