It opens a new chapter in the long list of referee's discrepancies that involve to the FC Barcelona and to the Real Madrid. The last incident was related with the controversy on the goal cancelled to Joao Félix, that previously had validated in previous days for Joselu, an annotation with a lot of similarities, which results odd that have applied a different criterion.

In this occasion, the merengues and, specifically, Nacho Fernández, have benefited of the decision of the Committee of Appeal of the Real Spanish Federation. As it informed in the 'Chain COPE', the sanction of the Madrilenian defender reduced of three to two parties, what means that it will be available, properly, for the Classical.

The grandísimo contrast between the sanction to Nacho and the one of Lewandowski

This resolves a big problem for the square of Chamartín, since for the magna appointment of 28 October in front of the Barcelona only had a natural defender, Antonio Rüdiger, the one who was in doubt because of a possible suspension by accumulation of cards a yellow. However, also it generates a debate on the disparity of existent criteria in the Referee's Committee of the RFEF when judging some decisions.

In concrete, have to trace us back to the campaign, when the at present lesionado Robert Lewandowski was expelled by double yellow and made a challenging gesture to the referee touching the nose in a crossing in front of the Osasuna. This resulted in a sanction of three parties for the Polish player, without possibility of appeal, although the FC Barcelona resorted to the TAD and to the Committee of Appeal. Besides, there was not a direct consequence for the referee offended, Jesús Gil Manzano, although it argued that the two additional days of suspension were due to "protests airadas".

Nacho, greater gravity and lower sanction

Now, the case of Nacho Fernández is different. The defender committed a wild entrance against Portu during the meeting between the Girona and the Real Madrid the past 30 September. This action caused an injury to the Spanish forward, the one who had to abandon the field in stretcher and, after several medical examinations, determined that it suffered a "osseous edema and break of the aponeurosis glútea left". Although finally the physical mishap did not result so grave as it thought initially, keeps on being an action of reckless game.l

The picture merengue argued that, to the not to have produced an injury that prevented to Portu be summoned for the following party, that contested only seven days afterwards, the expulsion of Nacho would have to comport a sanction of a party. The RFEF has accepted part of this argument and has decided to base his decision in the fact that Portu no lesionó and did not lose more split like consequence of the entrance, giving him a break to the Madrid, that has gone back to go out with his, leaving the sanction of Nacho in alone two clashes.
