FC Barcelona Rages Over Real Madrid VAR Room ‘Thank Goodness’ Remark

FC Barcelona, its fans, and pundits that cover the club have been left furious by an audio recording from the VAR room made during Sunday’s 4-3 win over bitter rival Real Madrid in El Clasico.

The Catalans went into the latest addition of the world’s biggest derby crestfallen after Tuesday’s painful Champions League semifinal second leg exit to Inter Milan.

Once more, Hansi Flick’s young side went 2-0 down early, but managed to come back to lead the tie for the first time 3-2 ahead of Inter goals in the 93rd and 99th minute which sunk hopes of an impressive quadruple trophy haul.

Barca had little time to dust itself off, and prepare for a fourth 2024/2025 showdown with its arch nemesis in Montjuic at the weekend.

There were doubts leading up to kick off as to whether Barca would be emotionally drained and also lacking physically thanks to a gruelling 120 minutes of play at the San Siro.
