Atletico Madrid's Jan Oblak has defended referees following Real Madrid's allegations of manipulation after their unexpected loss to Espanyol. Real Madrid's complaints stemmed from a disputed decision involving Kylian Mbappe and they accused officials of biased officiating, prompting backlash from the LaLiga community and calls for them to be reprimanded. Oblak emphasized the importance of allowing referees to perform their duties unhindered for the sake of the game's integrity. LaLiga President Javier Tebas condemned Real Madrid's stance as damaging to the league's reputation, suggesting the club has created a narrative of victimhood.
The best way is to leave referees in peace and that way they can do their job at their best possible level.
Real Madrid wants to harm the competition, not just the refereeing group.
