""It was a stolen match; the refereeing was full of problems. The decisions they made were unbelievable. Atletico Madrid committed I don't know how many fouls and weren't shown a single yellow card. I want to understand the fear of Barcelona going through.""
"UEFA's disciplinary framework is clear when it comes to public criticism of officials. Article 11 of the governing body's Disciplinary Code outlines the standards expected from players and clubs."
"Any 'insulting behaviour or behaviour that otherwise infringes the basic standards of decent conduct' or behaviour 'that brings the sport of football, and UEFA in particular, into disrepute' shall be grounds for sanction."
Raphinha's comments after Barcelona's Champions League elimination may lead to disciplinary action from UEFA. His criticism of officiating, despite not playing due to injury, has drawn attention. UEFA is reviewing his remarks, which could result in a suspension of up to three matches. If confirmed, this suspension would affect Barcelona's participation in the next UEFA Champions League. UEFA's Disciplinary Code prohibits public criticism of officials, and Raphinha's statements may be interpreted as bringing the sport into disrepute.
