Ronald Koeman was not happy with match referee Gil Manzano after Barcelona’s 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid in El Clasico on Saturday night.
The Barcelona boss admitted his side hadn’t been up to scratch in the first half, after seeing his team go 2-0 down, but also felt they were let down by the referee after the break.
Koeman felt his side should have been awarded a penalty for a foul on substitute Martin Braithwaite late on and also believed more stoppage time should have been awarded.
“Everyone has seen the game and if you’re a Barca fan you’re angry; you’re not happy with some of the referee’s decisions,”
“First of all, I just want to say that in the first half we weren’t good, attacking or defending.
