Despite Barcelona's spectacular comeback in their 3-2 win against UD Levante, match-winner Pedri appeared visibly irritated after the game.
And it wasn't about his own performance, but rather about the handball penalty that teammate Alejandro Balde had caused.
"Honestly, I don't understand it," Pedri said in an interview after the game on 'Movistar+'. Although they had recently received training on handball rules, the interpretation remains unclear to him: "Last season, Tchouaménis' handball was clear to me. Today it wasn't, but it was still called."
Pedri called for more transparency in such decisions: "They should explain it well, for everyone."
Despite the controversy, the 22-year-old was instrumental in the comeback and scored with a impressive shot to make it 1-2.
