The referee who ‘stole’ from Barça in the 20/21 and 22/23 Champions League, guilty of Madrid’s ‘robbery’

VAN BOEKEL, PROTAGONIST OF LEIPZIG-MADRID

This Tuesday in the field of the RB Leipzig, the Real Madrid has starred a new referee’s scandal afterwards that the room VOR decided to cancel a goal of the German group when it still did not fulfil the second minute of game in the meeting of gone of the eighth of final between both teams. That so much of the Germans finally did not go up to the marker after a brief review by part of the VAR, which was to charge of the Dutch Pol go Boekel, an old known of the madridismo, and also of the FC Barcelona.

The arbitrate of 48 years interpreted that the German Henrichs was offside positional and that ‘participated’ in the played when being on the way of Lunin in the so much that finally finished annotating Sesko. Although for a lot of fans and involved in the party treated of a decision inexplicable, yes that it can see like a controversial action more than the referee of Low Countries in the maximum continental competition.

The history of the Dutch referee against the Barça and in favour of the Madrid

And it is that if it reviews the history of the Go Boekel, can find that it is the same that was in the controls of the VAR when the system prejudiced to the Barça in the past Champions, where the ones of Xavi Hernández remained deleted in the phase of groups. In the duel in front of the Bayern in Munich, that saldó with defeat culé (2-0), the Dutch did not want to go in in a clear penalti of Davies to Dembélé with 0-0 and that finally finish hitting directly in the marker.

Besides, three weeks afterwards, Go Boekel wrapped it also in the Inter-Barça (1-0) with three decisions determinants in the room VOR. In that meeting, key for the elimination of the Barça, cancelled a goal to Pedri by a hand of Ansu Fati in the previous action, did not signal another very clear of Dumfries inside the area and neither punished an entrance by behind Çalhanoglu to Busquets that it had to cost him the expulsion to the Turkish.

Finally, and equally at the head of the VAR, the Dutch also was ‘protagonist’ in a gone of eighth of the Champions in the season 2020-21, in which the PSG goleó in the Camp Nou (1-4). The referee in that occasion did not urge to the main judge, his compatriot Björn Kuipers, to review some clear hands of Kean with 1-1 and regarding parties of the Madrid could remember easily the turn of eighth in front of the PSG (3-1), in which they Go Boekel was in the VAR and did not observe fault of Benzema to Donnarumma before the 1-1 partial of that party.
