The Eibar could equalise the marker in front of the Real Madrid, but the referee was once again determinant for the picture merengue. Sergio Bouquets had touched the balloon with the elbow inside the area and the main referee of the meeting did not review the played in the monitor after from the Room VOR said him that the action was involuntary and that, therefore, did not have to earn the maximum penalty.
The merengues finished carrying the three points in Ipurúa after the goals of Karim Benzema and Luka Modric in the first chamber of hour and the sentence of Lucas Vázquez in the last played of the meeting, in the 90+2. The history could have been very distinct, considering that after the goal of Kike for the discount, the Eibar took strength and had a lot of options for empatar.
The decision of the VAR had a lot weight in the final marker and until the players of the Real Madrid thought that the referee went to finish signalling the maximum penalty in favour of the Eibar. In fact, as it has said José Luis Mendilibar, trainer of the local team, Sergio Bouquets thought that it was penal. "They have seen it very clear, when in other played alike are 3 minutes giving to the images, will have seen it very easy the one of the VAR. To me it has seemed me penalti and think that to Sergio Bouquets also has seemed him penalti, because it has been it commenting with ours players and of his team", aimed at the end of the party.
The Eibar deserved more
If the VAR had not done him a new favour to the Real Madrid, the party had been very different. Although the merengues dominated during the first twenty minutes, after the discount of Kike the Eibar went back very upper in the field and the madridistas had to hold the pressure to carry the three points.
Mendilibar Has recognised that after the two goals in the first chamber of hour thought that it approximated a goleada. "To the chamber of hour have put to heat a player because it thought that fell us six, have done it perfect", aimed. "We have suffered and to me it has done me doubt if it was well play tightening up, little by little have gone improving, have stolen some balloons and already they were not so comfortable. The rest of the party have been of you to you, have done a goal, have had some occasion, also they, and have been alive until the last moment", sentenced in front of the means.
