    'Refereeing Was A Disgrace': Laporta Slams Officials After Barcelona Champions League Exit

    Barcelona Champions League: FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta launches a scathing attack on referee Clement Turpin following his side’s UEFA Champions League quarterfinal elimination against Atletico Madrid.

    Despite securing a 2-1 win on the night, Barcelona exits the competition with a 3-2 aggregate defeat, with Laporta attributing part of the loss to what he describes as poor officiating during Tuesday’s clash at the Metropolitano Stadium.

    “I congratulate Atletico Madrid on reaching the semifinals, but that does not excuse the fact that yesterday’s refereeing, along with VAR, was a disgrace, it’s intolerable,” Laporta told the press at the Conde de Godo tennis tournament in Barcelona on Wednesday, as quoted by Xinhua.
