Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez addressed the media following the Real Madrid vs. Almeria match, where the “royal club” secured a dramatic 3-2 comeback victory. The contentious moment revolved around Vinicius Junior’s goal, scored with his shoulder, which the referee upheld after VAR review.
Reflecting on the situation, Xavi commented during the post-match interview after Barcelona’s 4-2 win against Betis, stating, “After the match with Getafe, I said that there are things that are not logical and that it will be very difficult to win the title. Today the whole world could see what happened. As the coach of Almeria Garitano said – if we say something, we will be punished.”
In this round, Barcelona secured a 4-2 victory over Betis, accumulating 44 points and currently holding the third position, trailing Real Madrid by seven points.
