Craig Burley: No VAR check on Lee Kang-in was DISGRACEFUL in Madrid derby 🗣️ | ESPN FC

As far as positioning of the front two goes its not an issue if the team is built to play that way. Benzemba and Vini Jr did the same thing but then the rest of the team was built to defend and get the ball to the front two. Spain was also weaker during that era so I don't know if that squad wins the league over a strong Barcelona side. For all the money Madrid has they don't seem to know how to build a team. Its back to just buying galacticos that don't fit into a squad and hoping the skill is enough.

Did we learn nothing from the world cup? You cant just look at a tackle in slow motion otherwise everything looks like a red card. I think the correct call was a yellow which means its not able to be looked at by VAR. Only clear red card offenses are able to be reviewed. Maybe its a dumb rule but that is the current rule.

ESPN FC really has nothing else to talk about? Roma-Inter was arguably the best game of the weekend, yet they haven’t even mentioned it. Meanwhile, they’ve spent 4 straight days talking about Madrid derby officiating. If Atlético had been on the receiving end of those calls, would they still be talking about it? 😂

Madrid played the ball into play within 5 secs. That's why VAR didn't have a chance to look at the tackle you twats. Blame it on Valverde getting up right away and Madrid putting the ball into action. After play is restarted VAR can't go back and review the play. You all should know this.

Why this much coverage on refereeing mistake? This is something that happens in La Liga week in week out, but when it goes against Real Madrid it becomes headlines and it’s pathetic. Atleti suffered a lot of refereeing errors against Real over the years, Bilbao, Betis, Bayern, Juventus, Liverpool all got questionable decisions against them when they played Real Madrid but somehow when it happens to Real Madrid it has to be headlines for weeks. Are Real Madrid controlling all these media especially ESPN?
