That's not a penalty. VAR should have overturned it

A swipe for sure (at trying to clear the ball) but hardly any contact, certainly not what Casemiro suggested anyway.

Bale. 1-2.

Isn’t the whole point with VAR to get those right? Insane

Bale's reaction is weird. Why doesn't he want to celebrate with his teammates? What a weirdo.

Is there a more corrupt team around than Madrid? How on EARTH is that anything but a dive by Casameiro?

Once the Var comunicate with the referee I don't understand why he doesn't go always to check it himself in the screen.

Would have never given the pen too. Minimal contact, but Casemiro made it looks like he close to dying.

First one was clear pen. Second one come on, no contact at all.

Bale leaving end of the season I guess if anyone can afford him. Or annoyed by possible ban for previous celebration?

Nacho sent off. Still a chance for Levante if they can get some decent crosses into the box.

Just unfathomable that a ref could look at that and decide it's a penalty. Would be just unbelievable if not for the fact that it's a Real Madrid match.

Enjoyed that, Levante should have got a result from that. Robbed. Casemiro is a cheat and he would have been booked for diving if he was wearing a Levante shirt. What was VAR thinking?!?:houllier:

Yep. Another game Madrid win despite being mediocre, Levante were excellent and worth remembering they're not even top half which shows La Liga's depth this season.
Don't think they will have problems. I would be worried if were Celta Vigo and Villarreal though.

Casemiro dive there should've been a yellow, and him missing the clasico next weekend.

But who cares, right?

How the feck was that decision not overturned? One of the blatant displays of cheating ever. Holy shit.

Absolutely never a penalty, one of the most ridiculous calls of the season.
