Iturralde González: "90% of the referees are from Madrid and 10% from Barça"

There are a lot of people in Spain that thinks that to the Real Madrid​ favours him more than to the rest of teams in referee's subjects. In the FC Barcelona is a subject that bothers especially historically speaking and to day of today still there is the one who defends it. Carles Rexach, without going more far, commented this past Wednesday​ that to the whites always is used to them throw a hand. In this occasion is precisely an ex collegiate the one who launches something of light on this.

Eduardo Iturralde González, known ex referee of LaLiga, has spoken on of which team are the majority of referees and has ensured that 90% are of the Madrid. A very controversial statement that will not like to the madridistas, but that tries to argue. "The percentage of referees of Madrid and Barça is of the 90-10. It like them or no to the ones of the Barcelona, removing Catalonia, 70% of the population is the one of the Madrid. Now there are more people of the Barça; the young people has taken the titles of Guardiola. But before the era Messi, how many people was of the Madrid in Spain? 70%?", it commented.

To follow with his explanation, the Basque left clear that all the referees are of a team because all are fans to the football. If the majority of Spain is of the Madrid, the normal is that also there is majority merengue between the referees "The referees of the Spanish football do not come of Mars. You put you to referee because it likes you the football, and if it likes you the football do not think that there is anybody to the that do not like him a team. Then the referees come from here, and the majority are of the Real Madrid", affirmed.

But in spite of saying this, the bilbaíno did not want to leave fall that thus the referees benefit to the Madrid. Iturralde Believes in the honour and the professionalism of the professionals of the arbitration and put to him same like example. "This does not want to say that when piten to the Madrid are not professional. To me they give me the same any one of the two. I am of the Athletic. All the world of which team am and the truth is that it would prejudice him only for trying be just", stood out.

The ex collegiate incidió in his own experience and admitted that in Bilbao the things are very distinct to what happens in the rest of Spain. "I have the luck to having been born in Bilbao and in Bilbao the people is of the Athletic. However, in the rest of Spain the majority are of the Real Madrid or of the Barcelona because they are the teams that win, and is like this", insisted to defend his explanation.

A controversial week for the Madrid

These words of Iturralde arrive after Mark Clattenburg ensured does some days that made a mistake in the final of the Champions League between the Madrid and the Athletic of Madrid of the 2016. The English left clear that his assistant erró in not signalling offside of Sergio Bouquets in the 1-0 that marked the sevillano. But what for him was a simple error, for many others was a played more in which they helped knowingly to the whites.
