Watch: Ancelotti’s tremendous anger at referee during Osasuna vs Real Madrid | OneFootball

Another weekend, another La Liga matchday embroiled in controversial refereeing, with Real Madrid being on the receiving end once again.

This time it was referee Munuera Montero at the centre of things, as he doled out a red card to Jude Bellingham in the first half during the game against Osasuna at El Sadar while also denying a penalty claim to the reigning champions.

The match ended in a 1-1 draw, with Los Blancos far from happy with the officials – as was made clear by manager Carlo Ancelotti in his post-game presser.

Ancelotti’s anger at Munuera Montero

However, it was not only after the game that Ancelotti made his feelings clear about the refereeing.

Indeed, the Italian was visibly frustrated on the touchline at El Sadar during the match against Osasuna. He coach strongly disagreed with several of Munuera Montero’s decisions, which ultimately led to him receiving a yellow card in the 21st minute.

At that moment, Movistar cameras captured the Real Madrid manager’s heated exchange with the referee.

“That’s three penalties,” Ancelotti protested, having already contested two earlier incidents involving Vinicius Jr.

This time, he was referring to a possible handball by Juan Cruz following a header from Federico Valverde inside the box.

“It’s a penalty! That’s a penalty!” he exclaimed, gesturing by hitting his own arm to indicate that the ball had struck the Osasuna defender’s hand.

Munuera Montero, upon seeing Ancelotti’s animated protests, approached the touchline and firmly responded: “You have to speak to me with respect.” Immediately after, he showed the coach a yellow card.

Ancelotti, still fuming, insisted, “But it’s clear, it’s a clear penalty!”

Despite the booking, Ancelotti remained visibly upset, prompting his assistant coach and son, Davide Ancelotti, to signal for him to sit down and regain composure. Club delegate Chendo also stepped in later when Ancelotti approached the fourth official, trying to diffuse the tension.

Later, while sitting alone on the bench, he was caught on Movistar expressing his frustration with a blunt “Go to hell.”
