It's not all Barcelona's Fault....
I would like to start with some positivity so I have chosen to inform some of the cules of the fact that our bad form in the league is not all our fault. We are 4 points behind Real Madrid at this stage but if you do see some of the decisions the referees made in our games, you will feel pathetic. I would like to point out some of them because I want to tell the world that even when Barca is in a crisis it still is a superpower and we continue to fight and our determination is our greatest weapon.
First of all, there was a dive by Ronaldo in Real Madrid's 3-0 win over Celta Vigo in the League. And, surprisingly, He was awarded a penalty from which he scored. Well, we'll leave that because it is just not acceptable in football. The next Saturday, Barca drew it's match against Getafe in the league and a clear penalty was not given to Barcelona when Valera literally used his hand to stop the ball when Messi was dribling in the box. Hence, if that Penalty would have been awarded we would have won.
Most Recently their were two such incidents as well. First in Real Madrid's match against Valencia, where from a Real Madrid free kick, Bale flicked the ball up in the air with his head and it hit Negredo's arm accidentally. But no, penalty was given instantly and Ronaldo scored. The interesting thing happens some time later that day in Barcelona's match against Real Sociedad when a same type of incident happens. Pedro crosses the ball in the box, a Sociedad player tries to stop the cross and the deflected ball hits Inigo Martinez's hand. But a penalty is not given, just because we are Barcelona? That is certainly not fair at all. Here, again we would have got an equalising goal and then we could have even won it.
A Suarez goal was disallowed against Valencia, stating it as offside while Suarez was in a clear onside position. We won it when Busquets scored in the last minute but still, referees need to be fair with every team in the League. My Point is just that it is not all Barcelona's fault about the bad form in the League. If you think I missed something, do comment or tell me on twitter at @neymarabah and I might mention in another blog.
