Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro insists he was denied a goal by a handball in their 1-1 draw at Atletico Madrid.
Casemiro spoke of his frustrations after the match.
He said, "(The rules) aren't clear for us, if it didn't touch (Felipe) on the arm I would have scored and I tried to explain that to the referee. It's his decision and we have to respect it. He's a good ref, he went to VAR to look and that's positive, but I tried to explain that if it wasn't touched then I was there behind."
On the game, he added: "I thought it was clear. The first part they were better and in the second part we were. I think the chances we had could have let us take a 2-1 win. The key was the team's work above all in the second half.
"There's a long way to go. We always want to win, above all against those who are above us. We've worked well but there's so much to go. We're alive and we know we'll have chances."
