No doubt that the big talking point this weekend was Barcelona’s disallowed goal at Betis! The incident came late in the game with the Andalusians leading, Durmisi and Jordi Alba deflecting a cross towards the net, and Mandi clearing it away from at least a yard over the line. Neither referee Hernández Hernández nor his linesman spotted that though, and although Luis Suárez did grab a last gasp equalizer, there were strident calls from Barcelona and elsewhere for goal-line technology to be introduced in Spain. An LFP spokesman said however that it would be a season or two before anything happened on that front. (31.01.17)
