It’s a borderline play. If he had awarded a penalty, nobody would have said a word.”Barcelona boss Hansi Flick was asked about the refereeing during the game but didn’t want to get into it. He told reporters: “I don’t want to talk about this because it’s something I can’t change.

It’s good for you that I talk about it, but I don’t want to.“Do you think Barcelona should have been awarded a penalty for a push in the penalty area on Dani Olmo? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
