Bartomeu to write to Rubiales about Barcelona's denied penalty
Not happy with the officials
Posted Sunday, December 15, 2019 by Marca.com
Josep Maria Bartomeu will write a letter of complaint to Luis Rubiales, the president of the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), after Barcelona were denied a penalty during their draw with Real Sociedad.
Gerard Pique appealed for a spot-kick after he went down under the challenge of Diego Llorente in the area.
Referee Gil Manzano gave nothing, which further infuriated Barcelona after Sergio Busquets gave away a penalty for tugging on Llorente in the first half.
VAR wasn't used for the incident involving Pique and Bartomeu now wants to know why.
"I think it was a penalty," Barcelona's head of Institutional Relations Guillermo Amor said of the Pique incident.
"Everyone could see it was [a penalty]."
