Real Madrid demand La Liga president's resignation over 'conspiracy' row
–
Neutral summary
La Liga president Javier Tebas hit back on Tuesday, September 22, in a post on X at Real Madrid's complaints about refereeing in the Madrid derby, which the club lost 1-2 to Atletico Madrid. Tebas wrote that "a refereeing error does not prove a conspiracy, and repeating it for years does not make it true", and described the claim that referees are biased against Real as "living in another galaxy". According to O Globo, he also said the club was using the refereeing issue to "mask" its problems on the pitch. Real Madrid responded with a strongly worded statement demanding Tebas's resignation, accusing him of attacking the club and questioning his neutrality as head of the competition. The club said Spain "urgently needs a capable leader" and that Tebas "is not the owner of the competition". Earlier, Real coach Jose Mourinho argued that the referee should have sent off Cristian Romero and Lee Kang-in for fouls on Jude Bellingham and Fede Valverde. Tebas also sarcastically remarked that "the mouthpieces and the regime's television" were building "the same old narrative". Atletico Madrid mocked Mourinho's complaints with an ironic social media post using the hashtag "Stop refereeing harassment now". The Technical Committee of Referees acknowledged "a clear and obvious error" in one incident during the match, as reported by El Colombiano.
