The club's TV channel has a history of going after referees and questioning decisions that go against them. Now, they have turned their ire towards Gil Manzano, who will referee their upcoming clash with Celta Vigo in La Liga.

WHAT REAL MADRID TV SAID
In a new video, Madrid's TV channel describes Manzano as "the referee at the centre of the biggest refereeing scandal in recent times."
This was in reference to when Jude Bellingham's goal against Valencia, last season, was disallowed because it came after the final whistle.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Despite Madrid TV's protests, Sport states the Spanish giants have won 40 of the 52 matches when Manzano has been in charge. The antics of Los Blancos' channel is, arguably, not a good look for the club and La Liga.
