Mallorca player Dani Rodriguez gave an interview to 'Radio Marca Baleares' in which he hit out at Real Madrid. The midfielder was precise and considered, with irony and sarcasm, that the rule that referees have to have is not to make mistakes against Real Madrid.
One more week, the controversy in Spanish football has been focused on refereeing. This time, Jose Luis Munuera Montero was in the spotlight after refereeing the Osasuna-Real Madrid match and sending off Jude Bellingham for disrespect towards him. Right after this, the Andalusian referee was removed and investigated by the RFEF for a possible conflict of interest between the activities of his company and his work as a referee. Something that, on Thursday, has already been denied.
On these complaints, Mallorca player Dani Rodriguez wanted to give his opinion, who was blunt: “Those who complain the least are the ones who have to complain”. And he went further: “The rule is... don't make mistakes against Real Madrid”.
He was ironic about Bellingham's insult and his 2-match suspension: “The sanction was what was expected, I saw the game and, about what he said, I don't control it at all... that's why I'm studying English”.
Finally, Dani Rodríguez also wanted to comment on the incident involving his relatives in Saudi Arabia during the Spanish Super Cup: “We knew that we were not going to get anything; everything has been left in limbo, I found out what happened when I arrived at the hotel and it is unfortunate that it happened”.
