Carlo Ancelotti explained his words to the referees after the match with Girona.
Earlier it became known that the head coach of Real Madrid for criticizing the refereeing in the La Liga match (1:1). The Italian called the penalty for hitting the ball in the hand of Marco Asensio fictitious. The match was officiated by referee Mario Melero Lopez.
"I have to clarify something. I said that the penalty was invented. In Italy, this means that they put a penalty, which was not.
There is no accusation of dishonesty of the judge in this. I have never shown disrespect to the judges, I try to respect everyone. I can be suspended for four matches via soccer livescores - and that`s okay. I`m not going to mess up my stats.
For me it`s not a penalty, it`s a private opinion based on what we were told before the start of the season. If the rule was changed, we should have been told about it. It was a mistake, no one is infallible.
- This is not a problem of Real Madrid, Girona or Barcelona. That`s the problem with football, because if they say it`s a penalty, they need to explain the rule. I understand the rule well, I`m not stupid. We were told that it was not a penalty.
"I will still sleep peacefully. I want to make it clear that I wasn`t being disrespectful, I was just saying one thing that everyone in football is thinking about. If I am punished, I will be patient.
- This is a good invention, but the referee should remain the main character.
VAR corrects clear and obvious mistakes, and it didn`t seem to me that if the referee did not put a penalty here, it would be a clear and obvious mistake, " said Ancelotti.
