Raúl Martín Presa, president of Rayo Vallecano, has been forceful when talking about Unai López’s goal. After the crash, Xavi Hernández claimed a possible offside by Óscar Valentín at the beginning of the play for Unai López’s goal.
The Gipuzkoan player himself hit a ball into the area in a lateral foul and Balde cleared the ball with the aim of preventing Ajofrín’s player from intervening in the play.
After the game, the president of Rayo assessed the action in the DAZN microphones: “It seems indecent to me that a player of this category, probably the best in the history of Spain, such as Xavi, could call for offside in a shot from 30 meters and in which a player is wherever he is is occasional”.
“It is a man-to-man duel in a long-distance shot. I find it incredible that offside can be called. It is an attempt to mislead the referee. It is a great goal from Unai and I am surprised that a player of Xavi’s talent would ask for that.”
