Cristóbal Soria in a Sea of Tears after 2 VAR Decisions: the Whole World...

Former Sevilla delegate, Cristóbal Soria, couldn't contain his frustration after Real Madrid's victory in the Intercontinental Cup. Ancelotti's team beat Pachuca 3-0, but Soria didn't agree with two VAR decisions that influenced the result.

Rodrygo's goal and the positional offside
One of the most controversial moments was Rodrygo's goal. The VAR reviewed a possible offside by Jude Bellingham, who crouched before Rodrygo shot.

After reviewing it, the goal was validated, which caused criticism from Soria: "Hahahaha in Mexico and in the entire world today there are several million more anti-Madrid fans," he wrote on social media.

The penalty on Lucas Vázquez

The other play that Soria questioned was the penalty on Lucas Vázquez. In the replay, it was seen that the Pachuca defender hit the Galician knee to knee, which was clearly a penalty. However, Soria assured that Real Madrid needed “two refereeing assists” to win.

Despite the criticism, Real Madrid celebrated a clear 3-0 victory. Mbappé opened the scoring, followed by Rodrygo and Vinícius, who scored from the penalty spot. Although the play was reviewed, the result was fair for Los Blancos.

Reactions to Soria's criticism

Soria's tweet sparked a wave of reactions on social media. While Real Madrid fans defended the VAR decisions, others joined in the criticism, pointing out that the refereeing decisions were correct. However, Soria's criticism remains a topic of conversation following Real Madrid's victory.
