Supercopa de Espana 2017 Fans unhappy with the level of refereeing

Real Madrid have been left irritated by the refereeing in the first leg of the Supercopa de Espana with players and board members feeling that it was not up to the necessary level.

Similarly in the stands the fans feel angry and they believe it is not the first time that it has happened with the opposition benefitting and especially against Barcelona.

For that reason the Bernabeu has planned a protest with the waving of handkerchiefs for the performance of the referee at the Camp Nou and the dismissal of Cristiano Ronaldo.

It will be Jose Maria Sanchez Martinez who will be the referee for the return leg and he will be under close scrutiny throughout.

The handkerchief protest will take place on the seventh minute, to mark Ronaldo's club shirt, as he was the player who most suffered under the refereeing by being sent off and then making a mistake which has led to a five-match ban.
