Barcelona's formal letter to the RFEF addresses what they perceive as inconsistent refereeing standards affecting both their men's and women's teams. The club cites five specific grievances, including double standards in red card decisions, inconsistent handball rulings, accumulation of errors against them, questionable VAR usage, and disparity in VAR recalls.
While emphasizing they don't question referees' professionalism, the club demands an urgent review of the applied criteria to ensure equal treatment and preserve competition integrity. The complaint directly references incidents involving players like Frenike de Jong, Robert Lewandowski, and Lamine Yamal.
