La Liga president hits out at Real Madrid refereeing ‘conspiracy’ claims
Javier Tebas issued a lengthy social media rebuttal to a pro-Real Madrid article, dismissing allegations of a conspiracy against the club as an excuse for its own shortcomings.
La Liga president Javier Tebas denounced claims of refereeing bias against Real Madrid following their 2-1 derby defeat to Atletico Madrid. Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho presented two screenshots at the post-match press conference, allegedly showing red-card tackles by Atletico players. Tebas responded to a pro-Real article online, dismissing the allegations as part of a "permanent conspiracy" against the 15-time European champions.
He questioned the logic of judging refereeing based on revenue, viewership, or the club badge, emphasizing the importance of fair competition for all teams. Tebas stressed that Real Madrid's significance to La Liga should not justify accusing the league of being worthless without them. The president went on to argue that the conspiracy narrative serves as a convenient excuse to overlook Real Madrid's own shortcomings in the early stages of the season, preferring to deflect attention from their performance on the pitch.
