Barcelona are reportedly seriously considering the possibility of filing an official complaint with UEFA over the refereeing of their 2-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final.
According to Santi Ovalle, there is considerable anger within the Barcelona dressing room, particularly regarding a controversial penalty decision and several other key decisions during the match.
The club is particularly upset about the handball incident involving Marc Pubill and the way it was judged, believing it greatly influenced the result.
An official complaint would highlight what Barcelona sees as poor refereeing that influenced the result.
This comes after Hansi Flick’s post-match comments, who questioned the purpose of VAR after the match.
The situation has added additional tension to an already intense match ahead of the return leg at the Metropolitano.
