Today, FC Barcelona once again had a disappointing result. This time, they miraculously tied against Rayo Vallecano after a terrible first half where they could have gone down by more goals. After tying, the match went viral for two reasons, both dubious and controversial decisions by the referee against Barcelona.

FC Barcelona: "The important thing is not how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get up again," along with an image of Robert Lewandowski on the ground and looking with an indignant face, as that they did not charge him for a foul and it was not later reviewed in the VAR.

Xavi in his press conference commented: "Raphinha's penalty is clear, very clear. Everyone tells me so... We are getting crosses, like in Getafe or Granada. It is not an excuse because it is not "We were good in the first half, but if you ask me about that play, it is a clear penalty for Raphinha."

Frenkie de Jong is the most self-critical:

“We haven't played well, we haven't been at the level we can be. We have to work, we have had many injuries but if we continue working hard we can come back. "Today I didn't do well, I didn't feel good on the field," explained Frenkie De Jong after FC Barcelona's draw against Rayo Vallecano.
