Griezmann talks about the arbitration controversy before the derby

– French star Antoine Griezmann talked about the arbitration controversy that preceded the upcoming match between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid in the Spanish capital derby, stressing the need to stop pressure on the referees.

He said: “We must stop this nonsense, because for me, it is just nonsense, in the end, you are the journalists who give this matter its size if you do not talk about it and the clubs do not issue data, so there will not be much tension on the rulers.”

He added: “Now, it does not matter who will judge the match, as he will enter the stadium, afraid of making a mistake, because he knows that everyone is watching it. This is not a good position to judge such a match. We have to leave the referees alone, as they are tired of us on the field, not to mention external pressures. ”

Griezmann concluded his speech by saying: “It is the mistake of everyone, the clubs, the presidents, and the journalists, leave the rulers alone, as they are tired of us without having to deal with this controversy.”

This statement comes before the fiery confrontation between the two teams, as both Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid seek to resolve the derby in his favor in light of the fierce competition for the title of La Liga.
