This past Sunday the FC Barcelona achieved to win to the Leganés of form agónica thanks to a penalti caused by Neymar Jr, that commissioned Leo Messi to send at the end of the goal of Herrerín. The action of the penalti was clear: Mantovani went to the flat and, although it did not have the intention to commit penalti, hindered the progression of a Neymar that had a clear opportunity of goal inside the area.
In spite of everything, some madridistas criticised the penalti in the social networks, and the "cavern" mediática of the Spanish capital boosted these criticisms when showing -in the most timely moment, as always- the statistics of penaltis favourable that have signalled him to the Barça in the two last years.
To the club blaugrana have him pitado 23 penaltis in favour and only one against in these two last seasons, and is the team with better balance of all Europe in this sense. In any case, there is not place for the controversy taking into account that all these entrances were really penalti, and still would be necessary to add a lot of others that also were penalti and did not signal .
To the FC Barcelona have left him of pitar penaltis
Two examples occurred in this 2017, one on Neymar Jr in Saint Mamés against the Athletic in Glass of Rey, and the another a shot of Leo Messi that Bruno, of the Villarreal, diverted with the hand of way clearly intentional. Precisely in that party, the one of Villarreal, the referee was Churches Villanueva, the attendant to direct the Barça-Leganés.
But this to the "cavern" gives him the same. What matters is to look for a focus of controversy to put in doubt the cleaning of the points won by the FC Barcelona. It can that the culés did not play well, is true. However, they achieved the three points transparently.
