"Shameful," was the word with which the locker room ended up labeling Muñiz Ruiz's work. The VAR wasn't forgotten either, being another protagonist of the match but for its inactivity. It could have been of great help to solve most of the controversies, but Javier Iglesias Villanueva chose to don'thing.

The players' opinion

Clearly, after a match like this, Real Madrid's locker room wouldn't be happy at all. The disallowed goal for Vinícius, the tackle against Mbappé that wasn't a red card, and other uncalled plays caused the locker room's fury. Tired of being harmed by Muñiz Ruiz, the players didn't hesitate to express their opinion about his work.

Although they didn't say anything after the match, the words that have been revealed clearly show the locker room's stance. Having lost three valuable points in a controversial manner, the doubts about the refereeing have only increased with the end of the match.

This thought is not without reason, with the match having several plays that gave rise to these questions about the refereeing. Having arrived as the leader of LaLiga, this defeat conveniently now has made the competition red-hot again.

The feeling of an entire team

Like all of Madridism, the feeling in Real Madrid's locker room is that the team was sought to be harmed throughout the entire match. A disgraceful match that must be analyzed to avoid more controversies of this type during the team's upcoming matches.
