Real Madrid Slams FC Barcelona And Olmo For ‘Sea Of Filth’

2024-08-28 17:15:02

Real Madrid TV slammed the arch rival of its club FC Barcelona and a “sea of filth” which it has to navigate in a “third world competition”.

Barca currently boasts a 100% record in La Liga after three straight season opening wins under Hansi Flick for the first time since a title-winning campaign of 2018/2019.

The latest of these victories was a 2-1 comeback win away at Rayo Vallecano on Tuesday night, with Dani Olmo the MVP and scorer of a winning goal after he was finally provisionally registered following his $60 million transfer from RB Leipzig almost three weeks ago.

Reacting to the Catalans’ triumph in Vallecas, Real Madrid TV noted how its club’s biggest rival has been “forgiven a very clear expulsion for [Pau] Cubarsi at the Mestalla” on the opening day of the season – in another 2-1 win for Flick’s men against Valencia – while Los Blancos were denied a penalty in a 1-1 opening day draw to Mallorca.

“It’s not the fault of the rival, it’s of those who allow it,” Real Madrid TV stressed.

“If [Pablo] Maffeo is allowed to do that and they don’t give him a red card, then he will continue to do it. Of course, if he does it against another opponent he is sent off. It is what it is.”

What Real Madrid did take umbrage to directly with Barca, however, is that Olmo was given the green light to play amid the Blaugrana’s Financial Fair Play issues.

“Barca is allowed to register players arguing that a player’s injury of a month or a month and a half is long-term. They allow him to do so and he [Olmo] ends up being decisive yesterday in Vallecas,” it said.

Real Madrid TV lamented the state of the competition in Spain as “funny” and “very ordinary”, adding that its club has “to sail in this sea full of filth and obviously we have to continue”.

“That’s what Madrid has to fight with,” Real Madrid also said, noting a foul by Jules Kounde that went unpunished at Rayo, and arguing that La Liga crowns now have more value for Carlo Ancelotti’s troops than their various Champions League conquests.

“The leagues are worth more, they have a lot of merit, despite the fact that the prestige is given to you by the Champions League. It’s not normal. There is a conflict of interest. The company that serves the images and is in charge of the VAR has clear recognized interests in Barcelona winning.

“One of its top leaders said that [former Vice President of the Referees’ Committee Jose Maria Enriquez] Negreira was well paid,” Real Madrid TV scathed, in a nod to the ‘Caso Negreira’. “It doesn’t make any sense. It is a third world competition”.
