Robert LewandowskiThe key moment in this match on neutral ground in Saudi Arabia occurred in the 36th minute when, with the score 1:1, a penalty was awarded against "Real", which was converted by Robert Lewandowski.
Former FIFA referee Myroslav Stupar assessed the actions of referee Mansano in this episode:
"The referee acted less than ideally in this episode. Yes, the events on the field unfolded very dynamically, but such a renowned referee as Mansano should have called the obvious foul by the "Real" player. Only after VAR's intervention did the truth prevail. Mansano reviewed the video of Camavinga's foul on Gavi and rightly changed his decision, awarding a penalty, which "Barcelona" converted to take the lead.
Honestly, I expected a completely different course of events in the confrontation of the giants of Spanish football. But "Real" was too helpless in defense."
