: Leganes decided not to make any official protest or a statement against the arbitration decisions he suffered during its match against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, led by referee Gonzales Vuwaretez.
Despite the team coach, Borja Jiminiz, the need to upload the voice as other clubs did, the Leganes administration prefers to be satisfied with expressing its dissatisfaction through social media.
During the press conference after the match, Jimenez expressed his frustration, saying: “I will not protest again as I did previously in the Leganes match against Alaves, which was managed by the same referee to see if we would have a better luck with the appointments of the referees later I said that before and repeat it, the major teams have a little to complain about it I trust in the arbitration system, but luck was not in our favor today. He raises his voice as the rest of the clubs do, I think this will be useful to us. ”
Leganes’ decision not to protest this time due to a previous experience in the 2019-2020 season, when the club submitted an official complaint to the Referees Committee after calculating a controversial penalty kick against Levante, where the VAR did not intervene to review that the violation occurred outside the penalty area.
At that time, the former club president, Victoria Pavon, called for the return of the match from that moment, but the appeal did not succeed, and the club was not even able to obtain talks between the referee and the video technology team to understand the decision.
That incident left a negative impact on Leganes, as the club felt that the arbitration was not later on its rank, especially as it landed to the second degree in that season.
Also, the club did not succeed in obtaining an exception to contract with striker Carlos Baka after the departure of Martin Praithwite, despite the agreement with Villarreal.
Based on this experience, Leganes seems to see that confronting the rulers may lead to more negative consequences than a positive step, so this time he chose silence rather than escalating.
