In the first round of La Liga, Real Madrid played to a 1-1 draw away against Mallorca. After the match, former international referee Pérez Burrull shared his thoughts on two controversial decisions during the game on Marca Radio.
Mbappé’s fall without a penalty awarded:
Maffeo and the Real Madrid forward were running in the same direction, and the body contact was within the rules. Mbappé’s fall was not due to a foul by the defender.
Maffeo receiving only a yellow card for his foul on Vinícius:
The decision was fair. This action cannot be considered dangerous, so the referee made the correct call.
