The head coach of Barcelona, Hansi-Dieter Flick, reacted to the conflict between Real Madrid and the official representatives of the refereeing body of the Spanish championship.
Hansi-Dieter Flick, Getty Images«It is very important that there are referees. What they are doing to the officials in Spain is incredible. I don’t like it. Think about their families. Both players and coaches should also defend them. I don’t like to waste energy attacking referees.
We have VAR, and we have to trust them. Everything has to change because referees are human, and making mistakes is normal. The federation must show its strength because it is important. Players and coaches also make mistakes, and we must protect them.
We are always looking for excuses. If we lose, it’s because of the referees, but that’s not true. We all make mistakes — me, you, even the referees. We must protect them because we cannot play without them. We must protect them. We must play better to win,» quotes Flick Mundo Deportivo.
