Last season’s Spanish soccer champion Real Madrid suffered a loss in the ninth round on Sunday, scoring all four goals after using the video assistant system or VAR.
Real gave up 1: 4 (1: 2) to the Valencia team.
Carlos Solers scored three goals for the home team with an 11-meter penalty kick.
The first goal was scored by the guests, with Karim Benzema coming out of the penalty area with a strong shot in the 23rd minute. In the half, after Lucas’s hand, Valencia had the opportunity to take an 11-meter penalty. Solera’s counterattack was intercepted by Tibo Kurtuā, the Spanish striker repeatedly hit the post, but Junuss Musahs corrected the program and sent the ball into the goal.
However, after using the VAR, the housewives had to repeat the “pendulum”. Solers hit that in the lower left corner and Kurtuā hit the ball slightly, but it wasn’t enough and the visitors equalized in the 35th minute. Rafaēls Varāns was the first to reach the corner kick, but his header was blocked by the keeper.
In the second half, Solers took two more 11-meter penalties, which were awarded after using VAR. First, in the 54th minute after Marcel’s controversial foul on the penalty area, Solers reached 3: 1, but nine minutes later he made another “pendulum” after Carlos Ramos’s obvious hand play. This time the Spanish midfielder hit in the opposite corner and Kurtou guessed the direction, but in both cases the Real goalkeeper was powerless.
“Everything possible happened to us today,” said Real coach Zinedin Zidan after the match. “The referees are here to monitor the match. Three “pendulums” and a ball in their goal was too much. “
Zidane pleaded guilty to the loss. “I am a coach and I have to find a solution for any game. After the result was equalized, the course of the match changed completely. You can look for thousands of reasons, but you cannot look for excuses, ”said Zidāns.
The new week was welcomed by Real Sociedad from San Sebastian, who defeated the Granada team at home with 2: 0 (2: 0). The winners were scored by Nacho Montreal and Mikels Ojarsabals in the third decade of the game.
On Sunday, Villarreal also won the Getafe footballers 3: 1 (2: 1) away from the leading teams.

In another game, Madrid’s “Atletico” defeated the “Cadiz” team at 4: 0 (2: 0). The first and last goals of the Madrid team were scored by Joao Felix, while Marcos Ljorente and Luis Svaress stood out in the middle of the first half and at the beginning of the second, respectively.
