Barcelona robbed of clear goal during draw with Real Betis

La Liga’s lack of goal-line technology costs Barca points


Barcelona had a clear goal disallowed late in their 1–1 draw with Real Betis, renewing calls to bring goal-line technology to La Liga. Real Betis shocked the visitors by taking a 75th-minute lead. Even more shocking, however, was when Barca appeared to equalize, but the referee failed to recognize that Aissa Mandi’s clearance was made well inside the goal.

Luis Suarez eventually scored an equalizer that did count in the 90th minute, but Barca will be left to wonder what could have been as they sit four points behind a suddenly unstable Real Madrid in the table.

Unlike the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, and Ligue 1, La Liga does not have goal-line technology, as league president Javier Tebas claims it’s too expensive. After this, Barca might offer to foot the bill for the entire league just to avoid falling victim to the referee’s human failings again. Maybe some Barca players can pool their unpaid tax money to make that happen.

Sevilla employ magical floating ball in loss to Barcelona

The future of ball podium technology is NOW!

(Sevilla FC)

When Barcelona come to town, clubs are forced to do everything they possibly can to try and stave off the seeming inevitability of defeat. So with that in mind, Sevilla tried to counter the magic of Lionel Messi with an illusion of their own in the form of a levitating ball. Behold!

The levitating ball was achieved through electromagnetic technology. Unsurprisingly, Messi’s wizardry outmatched this hypnotizing science as he scored to help Barcelona to a 2–1 win.

Next time, try making your players levitate, Sevilla.


Barcelona get swarmed by fans after winning La Liga at Granada

Barcelona beat Granada 3-0 to edge out Real Madrid to a second consecutive La Liga title by a one-point margin on the final day of the season. Given that they won the title 550 miles away from home, you might think that it would’ve been a lonely celebration, but the locals got into the spirit of the day and swarmed the Barca players on the pitch after the final whistle.

Lionel Messi passes penalty to Luis Suarez for audacious goal

At a certain point, anything can get a bit boring. When you’re Lionel Messi and you’re up 3-1 against Celta Vigo in the 80th minute, you’ve reached one of those times where taking a penalty as one normally does just feels a bit bland. So instead of shooting from the spot, you lay off a pass to Luis Suarez to confound the goalkeeper, blow the minds of everyone watching and get your teammate his hat trick. That, my friends, is the mark of genius.

La Liga president admits to being a Real Madrid fan, proving every conspiracy theory ever

Fans of every La Liga club except Real Madrid have long believed that Los Blancos receive preferential treatment from those in charge, and now they have all the proof they need to claim validation.

Javier Tebas, Costa Rica born president of La Liga, has admitted to being a Real Madrid supporter.

From BeIN Sports:

“If I say I don’t support [Madrid], then that would be hypocritical and I would be painted as a liar,” he said in an interview with AS.

“And I certainly don’t like to be called a liar. Imagine if I said that I loved all teams, and then it came out that I supported Madrid since I was a boy, went to 27 Clasicos in the past, that I celebrated Madrid wins with friends in a bar. I prefer to call it as it is.”

Does this mean every penalty Real Madrid are awarded is a direct order from Tebas? Yep. Does it mean Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are being actively sabotaged at every turn? Of course. Does it mean that the Cristiano Ronaldo documentary will be shown at all official La Liga functions? You know it.

This, my friends, is indisputable proof that the Illuminati is real.
