The “royal club” is surprised by Bengoetxea’s behavior at the pre-match press conference, where the referee cried due to criticism directed towards him by the “Real” club television. Ahead of the final, the media department of the “whites” prepared a compilation of referee mistakes, noting that under his officiating, “Barca” wins more often than “Real.”
