Referee Gil Manzano took the spotlight after his controversial decisions in the Real Madrid-Valencia match in the Spanish League on Saturday.
The beginning was that the referee canceled a penalty kick for Valencia in the first moments of stoppage time, in a decision whose validity is highly questionable.
But the strangest decision of all came after that, when the final whistle was blown while the ball was heading towards the Valencia penalty area and Real Madrid had already scored the third goal.
The two goals were not counted because the final whistle came before the ball reached the head of the Real Madrid striker, which caused a massive wave of anger from all the Royal Club players.
Jude Bellingham led the way for the dissent, earning a red card, because he told the referee that the ball was a goal, a decision that also angered Carlo Ancelotti a lot.
Moments after the match, Aurelien Chouamini came out with a tweet in which he said that what happened was a shame by all standards.
Now we leave you with a video of the strange decision made by the referee of the match, which ended in a positive 2-2 draw.
