Raphael Varane was in the wars in the first half of El Clasico, and he could have been awarded a couple of penalties.
There was one incident where his shirt was pulled by Ivan Rakitic and then there was another where Clement Lenglet planted his studs on his countryman's thigh.
A photo has emerged of Varane pulling up his shorts to reveal the marks left behind on the defender, yet he wasn't awarded a penalty for either incident.

Two penalties should've been given on bad plays on Varane but they weren't given. We ain't complaining tho.

Too bad.... but I wouldn't blame the referee. It's a big call to award a penalty in a clasico, especially considering the tensions surrounding the game itself.

These things happen in games with such high tempo , and may well be unintentional even though they look otherwise on a closer view ...
