At the match between Real Madrid's and Athletic Club, the controversial winning goal came after the central referee went to view the VAR pitch-side monitor awarding a penalty kick at 76th-minute to Real Madrid, Sergio Ramos, wasted no time to slot the ball in for a goal. Meanwhile, Athletic was seen to be unfortunate not receive a late penalty-kick themselves which seen to be obvious by the spectators.

"I watched San Mames match until almost the end of the second half," Bartomeu said after Barca's victory. "I feel bad because we have the best league in the world and VAR after coronavirus isn't fair.

"It has changed some results and always favours the same team."

If you could recall before the restart of La Liga’s due to coronavirus, Barcelona's was two-point ahead at the top of La Liga's but that has changed with Real Madrid topping the table with four-point clear with both team left with four matches to play.
