It seems that Gil Manzano, the referee of the controversial Valencia-Real Madrid match in the Spanish League, will pay a heavy price for what happened in the confrontation.

Real Madrid almost achieved victory against Valencia at the “Mestalla” stadium, in the 27th round of the Spanish League, but the referee blew the final whistle for the match just two seconds before Englishman Jude Bellingham scored the winning goal for the royal team, so the confrontation ended in a 2-2 draw.< /p>

This matter sparked the anger of the Real Madrid players, who gathered around the match referee, causing Bellingham to get out of control and receive a direct red card.

What will happen to the referee of the Valencia-Real Madrid match?

The Madrid press opened fire on Gil Manzano, accusing him of deliberately depriving Real Madrid of victory, especially since the victory would have moved the royal team away from the lead over its historical rival, Barcelona.

The Madrid press reviewed the history of this referee with the royal team, as yesterday's incident was not the only controversial one, as previous incidents had occurred in several matches in which the "Merengue" side were involved.

As a result of the controversy, the Referees Committee of the Spanish Football Federation decided to punish Manzano, especially since it did not understand the reason for the decision he made.

According to the Spanish radio station "Cadena Ser", it is expected that Gil Manzano will not referee in La Liga for a period of time, as punishment for his poor judgment in the "Mestalla" match.

Real Madrid currently occupies the top spot in the Spanish League with 66 points, 7 points ahead of runner-up Girona and 9 points ahead of third-place Barcelona.
