LaLiga President Javier Tebas has recently intensified his criticism of Real Madrid, accusing the club of perpetuating a narrative of victimhood concerning refereeing decisions. In an interview with *The Objective*, Tebas labeled Real Madrid as a "crying club," stating, "They cry all day long. They cry about the weekend, they'll cry about the next weekend, and everything is the fault of a conspiracy." AS.COM
Tebas highlighted what he perceives as a double standard in Real Madrid's approach to officiating controversies. He pointed out that while the club has been vocal about alleged biases, especially concerning referee José Luis Munuera Montero, they have not addressed potential conflicts of interest within their own organization. Specifically, Tebas noted that the wife of Real Madrid's pitchside delegate, Megía Dávila, holds a position within the referees' committee (CTA) and serves on the Federation's Board of Directors. Tebas questioned the lack of scrutiny over this relationship, contrasting it with the intense criticism directed at Munuera Montero.AS.COM
This exchange is part of a broader dispute between LaLiga's leadership and Real Madrid. The club has recently lodged formal complaints about refereeing decisions, leading to heightened tensions. Tebas has dismissed these complaints, suggesting that Real Madrid is constructing an unfounded narrative of victimization.REUTERS.COM
The situation underscores the escalating friction between Real Madrid and LaLiga's administration, with both parties publicly airing grievances and challenging each other's positions on officiating and governance within Spanish football.
