JAKARTA - La Liga president Javier Tebas criticized Real Madrid on Thursday, February 6, 2025, saying the club had gone crazy after filing a complaint letter against the Spanish league referee.
Los Blancos sent the letter following a 0-1 loss to Espanyol on Sunday, February 2, 2025 WIB.
The contents of the letter included complaining of controversy surrounding the decision not to give a red card to Espanyol defender Carlos Romero for violating Kylian Mbappe as he ran for a counterattack.
"They are against everything. That's the reality. Real Madrid wants to damage the competition, not just the referee," Tebas said at a meeting of La Liga clubs, the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), and representatives of the Spanish Referee Committee (CTA), which Real Madrid did not attend.

"They have built a narrative about victims culminating in statements they released a few days ago."
"They have told stories about victims that are not true," said Tebas again.
The La Liga champion said the referee's decision - including the decision of video assistant referee (VAR) - was biased against them and felt discredited.
They sent complaints to the RFEF and the Spanish High Sports Council (CSD), asking for VAR audio following Mbappe's foul and Vinicius Junior's annulled goal.
"What happened was not an isolated incident or a simple referee's fault."
"It is the latest and most serious manifestation of the refereeing system whose credibility has been fully undermined," the club said in the letter on Monday, February 3, 2025.
Meanwhile, Tebas said La Liga would file a complaint against Real Madrid.
"We will file a complaint against the club against those who signed the letter against the council."
"We analyze it from a legal point of view because, of course, this type of letter cannot be tolerated."
"It contains a lie or half of the truth aimed at influencing issues that cannot be influenced."
"They have lost their minds. Football doesn't just rotate around Real Madrid," said Tebas.
