"The club believes that there was refereeing conduct contrary to current regulations, with a direct impact on the course of the match and its result."
"Barcelona consider that this decision, together with the serious lack of intervention from VAR, constitutes a significant error."
"Consequently, the club has requested the opening of an investigation, access to the referees' communications and, where appropriate, official acknowledgment of the errors."
"Barcelona consider that this is not the first time that, in recent editions of the UEFA Champions League, incomprehensible refereeing decisions have seriously harmed the team."
Barcelona has lodged a formal complaint with UEFA following a controversial incident in their Champions League match against Atlético Madrid. The complaint centers on a handball by defender Marc Pubill, who was already on a booking. The referee did not award a penalty, and VAR did not intervene. Barcelona claims this decision significantly impacted the match's outcome and has requested an investigation into the refereeing conduct, citing a pattern of unfavorable decisions in recent Champions League editions.
