Real Madrid fought back from 0-2 down to tie 3-3 against Rayo Vallecano on Saturday at the Estadio de Vallecas. Carlo Ancelotti though was frustrated over a controversial penalty call when Vinicius Jr was brought down. The controversy unfolded in the 75th minute, with the score 3-3, when Vini Jr was brought down inside the area by Mumin, but referee Martinez Munuera did not award a penalty. “The penalty seemed very clear to me. Sometimes we have to suffer and, in this respect, we suffered,” said Ancelotti after the match.
“Vini Jr didn’t start because he had played 90 minutes in the Champions League and after his injury, we wanted him to play in the second half, where there was a bit less intensity. Vini did well, he played well and had chances to score. He played a good game,” he added.
