VAR Data and Semi-Automatic Offside that Annoys Real Madrid

Real Madrid celebrated in style the regaining of the lead against Las Palmas. The club's thrashing over the team coached by Diego Martínez ended with a 4-1 on the scoreboard, and could have been more lopsided and convincing than it seemed.

The excellent offensive performance of Ancelotti's men led to seven goals against the goal defended by Jasper Cillesen. Although the reviews from the VOR room canceled three. While it's true that all those actions were offside, the number of disallowed goals in a single game by video refereeing remains remarkable.

So much so that in the Valdebebas offices, they've resorted to the data of this season's refereeing balance. In the goals section, a very striking conclusion has been reached: Real Madrid has three times as many goals disallowed by VAR as Liverpool. The implementation of semi-automatic offside has sent to limbo up to nine goals from Ancelotti's pupils, six more than Arne Slot's team.

The red team's data places it in the second position with the most goals disallowed by semi-automatic offside in the five major leagues. The white board has also realized that the Meringue entity receives the fewest penalties in its favor after a review of video refereeing.

Surprising

This circumstance against the white team happens even when the person in charge of administering VAR asks the field referee to go to the monitor to personally review the action. The data published by the X account "@Petrelli86" would act as another reason for Madrid to insist on reviewing all aspects of its current refereeing balance.

The production of videos about referees by Real Madrid TV hasn't stopped despite the victories, a trend since the outbreak of the 'Negreira case'. Highlighting the referees' mistakes against Real Madrid is a task they're not willing to abandon. Especially if the refereeing balance data is as striking as the one published by this social media user.

However, Carlo Ancelotti's pupils know their focus must be on the upcoming matches ahead. The most important, besides the most recent, is the clash against RB Salzburg to be held at Santiago Bernabéu. Victory is mandatory to secure qualification for the 24/25 Champions League knockout rounds.

It will also be an excellent opportunity to dispel all the negative debates that have arisen regarding the Madrid entity after the defeat in the Spanish Super Cup. The thrashing suffered against FC Barcelona left several white players, as well as Carlo Ancelotti, marked... however, the judgment of Madridismo has relaxed with two victories achieved in the Copa del Rey and LaLiga since then.
