The former director and former candidate for the presidency of Barcelona , Toni Freixa , continues and maintains his blind campaign against Real Madrid with the refereeing. In the midst of a wave of frustration due to dubious actions by the refereeing body, Freixa shared a reflection on his social networks to which users have not hesitated to respond with a wave of "conclusions" more solid than those he himself launched.
Let's put things into context. It was this Sunday night when Toni Freixa , through his personal account, wrote the following on X : "Last matchday: Yangel Herrera (Girona), direct red. This matchday: Antony (Betis), direct red." The former Blaugrana director made allusions to the fact that players who were due to face Real Madrid the following matchday were sent off, depriving them of any contribution on the pitch.
"Data that leads to conclusions," Freixa reasoned , concluding his message, sowing doubt about these expulsions of players in the day before their match against Real Madrid , looking for connections. What he seems not to have investigated, where he did not collect these "data" to which he refers, is why these players were expelled, if there was any kind of debate. And no, there was not.
Yangel Herrera 's direct red card on February 14 left no room for discussion. It is clear how the Venezuelan himself left the field of play, without complaints, without any debate. A clear stomp on the Achilles heel of a Getafe player from behind, reviewed by the VAR , led to the player's expulsion when the final score was already 1-2. Direct red card and no chance of playing his match this week against Real Madrid .
The next Toni Freixa affair , the other expulsion, that of Antony , took place this matchday. Betis will be Real Madrid 's next league rival and the Betis club will not be able to count on the Brazilian star, who has fallen into the team but who maintains these little details that detract from the footballer he can be. The Brazilian made an ugly tackle from behind on a Getafe player that cost him a direct red card and his absence next matchday against Real Madrid .
These were the "data that lead to conclusions" from Toni Freixa , which he exposed on social media, implying the actions in favour of Real Madrid by the refereeing body, a whining from the former Barça director who, evidently, did not bother to see the reckless acts committed by both footballers to see the red card.
In fact, his networks were filled with other "conclusions", as Freixa says . On the one hand, a user reminded him that "for 17 years: payments of 8.4 million from Barça to Negreira, vice-president of the referees, with Antonio (Toni Freixa) as director." Another reminded him of the payments that presidents Gaspart , Laporta , Rosell and Bartomeu paid to EnrÃquez Negreira for years.
«Yes, everything is red unless the tackle is on a Madrid player. Do you have any comments on the strange yellow cards for Kubo and Aguerd? Or since they're missing the game against you, it doesn't matter?», another user asks, referring to two players who won't play against Barcelona next week…
