La Liga has disclosed a surprising mistake made by the referees using VAR in the Real Madrid vs. Almeria match. VAR is under scrutiny for an unexpected error where the referee overlooked awarding Almeria’s third goal during the game.

After a contentious encounter, Real Madrid faced heated discussions following their victory over bottom-of-the-table Almería at the Santiago Bernabéu.

The visitors took an unexpected two-goal lead before halftime, but Real Madrid staged a comeback with goals from Jude Bellingham, Vinícius Jr, and Dani Carvajal.

The match stirred controversy with a soft penalty awarded to Los Blancos, VAR overturning Almería’s third goal, and Vinícius Jr’s initially disallowed goal later being given. The post-match atmosphere, marked by contentious decisions, led to widespread criticism, with Almería’s Marc Pubill hinting at potential corruption influencing the outcome in a bold statement to DAZN.

Pubill’s words raise concerns about fairness, integrity, and the influence of external factors on football results, contributing to the ongoing debates around VAR and refereeing decisions.
