The main referee of the match between Real Madrid and Celta Vigo (0:2) in the 15th round of the Spanish Championship, Alejandro Quintero Gonzalez, spoke about the words spoken by the defender of the Madrid club, Daniel Carvajal, in the dugout after the match.
"Mr. Daniel Carvajal, without his uniform and in casual clothes, approached me and said: 'You have such a level of refereeing and then you cry during a press conference,'" Gonzalez was quoted as saying by El Chiringuito.
Some Real Madrid players disagreed with the referee's decisions and criticized his actions. As a result, defender Álvaro Fernández and striker Hendrik were sent off at the end of the match.
After 16 matches in Spain's La Liga, Real Madrid is in second place in the standings with 36 points.
