""Madrid has been awarded a thousand penalties like that,""
""For once they don't get a penalty handed to them on a plate for some dive, they shouldn't complain.""
Real Madrid lost 2-1 to Osasuna after a VAR review awarded Osasuna a penalty for a foul on Ante Budimir. The referee initially booked Budimir for diving but, after reviewing the footage, ruled that goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois had caught Budimir and awarded a spot-kick. The decision continued a run of prominent VAR interventions in La Liga this season. Madrid has previously benefited from penalties in similar situations. The match outcome allows Barcelona to reclaim the top of the La Liga table if Barcelona beat Levante at Camp Nou later that day.
