Joan Laporta’s extravagant statement only highlighted one of Spanish football’s biggest – and most disconcerting – problems.
It took Joan Laporta four minutes to highlight Spanish football’s biggest problem. Barcelona’s president posted a video on Monday that went viral criticizing (in no particular order) the Spanish Football Federation.
In the video, Laporta called for a thorough analysis of what could be the decisive target. Lamin’s shot from his clever move at the near post could have crossed the line before being saved by Andrey Lunin, but a lack of technique on the La Liga goal line meant the action had to be reviewed by VAR, who was unable to do so. make a clear decision about whether the ball has hit the net.
The match ended 1–1, with White eventually winning 3–2. The incident exposed the most embarrassing omission in Spanish football. La Liga does not use goal line technology, which is now standard throughout Europe.
And while Laporta’s childish complaints and silly requests for a replay are unfounded, his main argument highlights that Spanish football can no longer wait to implement technology that Barca themselves have also strangely ignored for so long.
