Joan Laporta has told Real Madrid not to complain in the wake of their surprise defeat to Osasuna on Saturday in La Liga.
Los Blancos went down 2-1 in a game that saw Osasuna awarded a penalty after a VAR check for a foul on Ante Budimir.
The match referee originally booked Budimir for diving but awarded a spot-kick after reviewing the footage and deciding goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois caught the striker.
It’s the latest in a series of high profile decisions in La Liga this season but Laporta thinks Madrid
should accept the decision with grace.
“Madrid has been awarded a thousand penalties like that,” he told Cope.
“For once they don’t get a penalty handed to them on a plate for some dive, they shouldn’t complain.”
The defeat means that Barcelona can return to the top of the table in La Liga if they beat Levante at Camp Nou this afternoon.
