"Barcelona stated that several refereeing decisions across both legs of the tie did not comply with the Laws of the Game, resulting from an incorrect application of the regulations and a lack of appropriate intervention by the VAR system in incidents of clear significance."
"The Catalan club believes they were on the wrong end of several contentious decisions, including two potential penalty situations that did not trigger VAR intervention, which had a direct impact on the course of the matches."
"Barcelona reiterated their requests to UEFA and offered to collaborate with the organization to improve the refereeing system, ensuring a more rigorous, fair, and transparent application of the regulations."
"UEFA had previously rejected Barcelona's initial complaint regarding a handball on a goal kick by Atletico defender Marc Pubill, which the club claimed was a significant error in the first leg."
Barcelona has filed a second complaint with UEFA after their initial appeal regarding a handball incident was rejected. The club claims several refereeing decisions in their quarterfinal tie against Atletico Madrid did not comply with the Laws of the Game. They argue that the VAR system failed to intervene in significant incidents, impacting the match outcome. Barcelona believes these errors caused sporting and financial harm, and they are seeking to improve the refereeing system for future matches.
