One of the greatest robberies of all time Trying to keep the title race alive - Real Madrid fans all blame the same person after 1-1 draw against Girona

Real Madrid were held to a late draw against Girona fans were furious after the referee Mario Melero Lopez in their 1-1 draw against Girona in at the Santiago Bernabeu on October 30. He awarded Girona a dubious penalty late in the game, which converted to hold the champions to a draw. Vinicius Junior broke the deadlock for Los Blancos in the 70th minute and they seemed to be headed towards another win. However, Blanquivermells were given a late reprieve when the match official awarded them a penalty for an apparent handball from Marco Asensio. Replays showed the ball had rather come off the underside of his arm and that it wasn't the right call. However, the decision stood nonetheless and Stuani made no mistake from 12 yards. FT: Real Madrid 1-1 Girona.

Real Madrid s lead over Barcelona trimmed to just a point

Real Madrid opened up a three-point lead over Barcelona following their 3-1 El Clasico victory earlier this month. However, after today's disappointing result, that has been trimmed to just one. The penalty decision has rubbed the side up the wrong way. It will certainly be talked about for days to come, especially since it was given after the referee consulted the pitchside monitor.
