Jose Mourinho expressed his frustration with refereeing after Real Madrid suffered a 2-1 loss to Atletico Madrid in the Spanish league. The coach claimed that his side should have played with 11 players throughout the match, as Atletico was awarded two clear red cards. Mourinho pointed to two incidents involving Dean Huijsen's tackle on Federico Valverde and Kang-In Lee's tackle on Valverde, which neither resulted in a red card.
The Madrid coach also criticized the referee Ortiz Arias, who was a 41-year-old referee not on the international list, for not handling the pressure. Mourinho further expressed dissatisfaction with the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) for not issuing red cards in two other clear cases from previous matches involving Atletico. Despite these complaints, Mourinho praised the referees' committee, claiming it was strange that the Atletico fans would be the ones to celebrate the result.
