- Опубліковано 24 бер 2023
- Barcelona stand accused of bribing referees to influence match results. The alleged offenses took place between 2001 and 2018, a period where it has been discovered the club paid companies owned by the former vice-President of the Technical Referees over €7m for ‘external consulting.’ The Spanish prosecution claim these payments were in the name of corruption, something Barcelona adamantly denies.
So who is telling the truth? In this Football Daily Explained, we look at who has said what in regard to the Barcelona corruption scandal, see how the rest of La Liga feels about the drama, before delving into what punishments could be dealt to Barca if they are really guilty...

Pique talking about Barcelona's accusations while his conmections to Thebas were made public a while back is hilarious to me. Pique's hands are dirty, that's why he would rather set them on fire than being caught with them in the shit he has been doing with the head of LA Liga.
never trust someone that got caught cheating on family ;D

Suddenly the "victory" in the champions league final over Arsenal and that infamous "win" at Chelsea start to make sense.
Shevencko disallowed goal , pepe red card …. We can go on
2004 drogba send off
The infamous 2009 UCL semi final against Chelsea. We could all see the ref was in their pocket. 4 separate occasions for legitimate penalties disallowed.
The Van Persie yellow card (second yellow) for shooting the ball 1 second after the whistle is starting to make sense 😅
@@Jus_Bernardyou’re forgetting the awful refereeing decisions made against Barcelona in the first leg. Maybe not as bad as the second leg but the first leg was definitely in Chelsea’s favour so how do you explain that?

My mind immediately went there, for shooting 1 second after the offside call…
The day Barcelona "cheated" against Chelsea in 2009, i knew this would be happened someday.

There is a difference between paying the vice president of the Spanish technical committee of referees and paying the uefa champions league referee committee.

Essentially they’ll get away with it because it’s Barcelona, if it was a smaller sized club they’d be doomed

Yes it's True. Mourinho is right as always.
that offside goal vs arsenal in the final makes sense now…
I don't think you really paid attention the money was paid to the head of Spanish referees
Uefa and Spanish league have different referees champ 😂
It's alright bro, I was right there with you. "Does that mean we won the CL?!?" 🤣🤣🤣😢😢😢
Nah arsenal are just bad🤣🤣🤣
@@diegoeugeniofragachanquint4496 different??? What is different is they the same referee as well and the Spanish referee officiates when the game is club or country in Europe, therefore doglona pay the referee because there will be effects and profits from it, losers now from that doglona is rubbish and fanboi like you is rubbish too
They paid for 17 years vice president soccer referees and his son. 7 Millions to the father and same for the son. They promoted and demoted the referees and scored them.
Funny how they want Laporte to quit when it was Bartomeu for all of this
With these “Levers” that Laporta is using when they could’ve just rebuilt
Yeah mate Laporta may not be on the level of a Bartomeu but he’s close to it 😂
You won’t win the Spanish league each season and you most certainly won’t win the champions league
Face it your fucked either way 😂
Also that European Super League you and Juventus want to cover your debts yeah no lad it’s not gonna happen and you know it 😂

Don’t worry though even oil money City won’t escape either as they like you will be made an example of
LaPorta started it in the early 00s
All these while we complained about obvious biasness in refereeing towards Barcelone or even termed it uefalona. But I didn't really think such schemes was ever in place.
Barcelona are often on the loosing end of the referee decisions. Btw the allegations are only of national games
As of this week
Before the release of this video mond you, the Spanish Court for Arbitration of Sport has declared that there was "no evidence" that barcas payment to the Negreira organisation had any influence on referees or match decisions
I'm a barca fan. So what are the payment for? Gift?
@Din bachok review and analysis of referring styles of each referee as to avoid sending off, they found evidence of that
@@stevensmith9568 teams should never pay any money to judges. It breaks the competetive integrity. You cant judge and be payed by a team.
Not saying it was bribes, but this shit should never happen.
But on this topic, no videos will be made, only a footnote in a different Clickbait video.
@@sumo1011 Again its an analysis of the refs previous games to see what their attitude towards players are. Its like how teams do opposition analysis.

Sorry biased English media and barça haters, but Barça have been declared NOT guilty. Laporta shows you all the middle finger 🤡 (just like he did when every Chelsea transfer target choose a supposed "broke" barça over them😂😂😂😂😂😂)
The biased English media has deceived you.
The ref allegations are for la liga games only. I don't understand why there are so many comments about champions league game.
They are just trying to make up scenarios that fit their agendas
Barça fans huffing some copium in the comments
Nothing would be better for the football world than Barca getting liquidated

How’s that typical

Great vid
This isnt well known but there was a time when a President of the Refereeing commission of spain handpicked referees for each matches. There is an audio of a referee from that time testifying that before Real Madrid matches he would personally call them and tell them that they counted on him in the match the next day. During this period that he was president Real Madrid dominated winning almost everything in the league. That same president also said that while he was in charge Barca would win no leagues, which they didnt. I find it very interesting as well that after he was no longer in charge Barca started winning league titles again and Madrids dominance stopped. Plus other referees have gone on record stating that Florentino took them into rooms when they were refereeing for Madrid. This also reeks of corruption and pressuring referees but you see almost no media reporting it or caring which just seems extremely funny to me
I think everyone forgot that underlying joke for a long time that Barca always paid off the refs..Messi will not go down as the goat, sorry
Roles reveres and this was an English team, you guys would not be making any videos. Look at Man City with their corruption charges but no, there’s no coverage there smh because they are an ENGLISH team
very smartly you guys ommited that a search was already done and the Spanish Court for Arbitration of Sport has declared that there was "no evidence" that barcas payment to the Negreira organisation had any influence on referees or match decisions. So stop providing half information and manipulating your audience
Exactly 💯🎉! English media are brutally biased
It's almost like they have an agenda.
Telling me Barca are innocent?
@@bongomanbwireplease lol half of them are barcelona sympathizers
Barca fan here? You can tell cos they living in their own world smh . Your precious Barca is a den of criminals
5:55 I wonder why Florentino Perez called an emergency meeting??? Maybe because they are the only team supporting Barca as they have done the same thing. Not to mention that La Liga has publicly stated he his a Maridsta
You do realize every La Liga president supports a La Liga team right?
What dude? Just sounds like coping at this point
Lol! Please watch RMA's video answering Laporta on who really was the club of the regime and eat your comment..
Anything to sleep at night😂😂😂😂😂😂
I really don't want to be that guy but shouldn't it be 39 of 41 clubs? 20+21 since Villareal B are a reserve side.
They should investigate why Sevilla allways cheat their way to win the Europa League.
Need a video on the verdict, suddenly this is not interesting enough 😂😂😂🤦🏻♂️
Messi’s controversial Balondor’s as well, wouldn’t be surprised if they had something to do with the 2018 2019 robberies either
2018 Ballon dor is modrid
And 2010, Sneijder.

Do you really think barcelona benefitted from ballon d’or results don’t be stupid, they really care who won ballon dor
What will happen? NOTHING. Spain is not Italy, with all due respect.
is he saying varcelona @9:36 xD
So much wrong information in this video. First the payments were not to companies owned by Enriquez Negreira, but by his son ! The issue becomes that Enriquez was a shareholder in both companies.
Also, the Spanish Court found no evidence that the money was ever used to pay referees or influence decisions!
As a Barca fan, I want to know more of what happened, but this video is just poor journalism at it's finest. Half stories and creating an evident agenda.
As a Barca fan I'm sure this is a completely impartial analysis on your behalf then as well
@@collin8915 facts are available mate, this isn't the middle ages. Do the research yourself and see.
@@collin8915 he stated facts that were known before the video we all just watched was uploaded. how can you call bias in this case? :D
Very interesting
Mourinho knew
Nothing makes sense to Pique. Like why is he getting paid when Spanish teams go play in Saudi Arabia lol
Because he set up the deal with the Saudis using his connections. That’s called a commission moron
And people dont like VAR?
Chelsea got ROBBED they should sue seek damages haha
So stupid lol
nice ”deep dive”
payments or not , i just want the ref from the chelsea game banned from any football activities .
Barcelona is guilty but money is big so barcelona will win this case. They corrupt the referees ..... judge ?!? no problem we have money will be easy !
Now we know why fellas.
4:55 like there are simpler ways to cheat than having your affair partner eat loads of jam?
If the over teams in the league are that incensed all of them should refuse to play barcelona. They would win the league but the lack of tv money would bankrupt them
Corruption and bad management in Spain🤔What a surprise haha. Barca is guilty for sure.
Barca deserve this shafted so many clubs over the years
LOL you're stupid if you think there's anything to this considering they've already been found innocent in Spain.
You mean beat many clubs over the years lol
7 millones of reasons to punish them
Ahh yes,football daily and wrongful titles, thumbnail, whats new?
Yea I believe this no problem. Barca will of course claim innocence but cmon this is shady beyond belief, unless you are hardcore Barca fan its obvious this stinks. They treat their players like crap, so this is hardly surprising. Nothing is going to happen tho, its Barca...
nothing will happen, as ever.
The truth take it time but always win
Dear Football Daily team. You uploaded this 5 days ago. While there are reports dating 9 days ago, that the Spanish Court has found no evidence of Match Fixing or manipulation. So why would you upload this? I mean, obviously as it generates money for you. But this is just poor journalism, I really expected more from you.
Another way by Papa Perez to get rid of Barca.....
Piqué got no spine
Omg this is such a bad take, all I heard was it could this , it could that, why don't u just state what actually going on but that would make this video 2 min long.
Corruption or not, it is clearly conflict of interest, which can give way to favorable referee decisions in hindsight
Stupid. They’re innocent lol
True but not illegal. The same way as the La Liga president is a Madrid fan or most of the la liga refs have claimed to be Madrid fans and many have said that bias sometimes creep in to their judgement.
@@NightmareLDrago LaLiga president is a Real fan? he has done everything till date to bring Real and Barca in line. Being fan and favoring a team is 2 different things. Have you taken any course in Conflict of Interest? It allows you to be fan, says strict no to taking money or material.
@@funkyamii Barca and real in line? Do we live in the same world? What has he done for the league? La liga is going behind more and more every year. And what are Tebas' policies to improve this? Or did u forget about the CVC deal fhat would've crippled la liga for the years to come?👍🏻
@@NightmareLDrago I have Tebas, but I was replying to someone who called him Real fan. He hates Barca Real for being too dominant in La Liga, instead of improving the league bottom up he wants to do it by decreasing the power at the top. I agree, he is political guy and not football guy
Any reasonable person dat nows football and watch laliga for years well understand what baca are doing and the way the refs are officiating, a am not surprised cause i have sospected this a long time ago before it happens now 😂
u couldve atleast done some research and not based this video on BR sports graphics👍
Barca is innocent
Considering Pique had an affair, can we trust anything he says?
VARCELONA
Barca only win trophy by paying ref
❤
Barcelona paid for technical reports on LA LIGA referees from 01-18 to better inform their players and staff on interactions with those refs. Legal and used in other leagues/sports. This has nothing to do with UEFA. Not only that ,but there's evidence brought forward to back Barcas claims of no wrongdoing .
Are you a Barcelona fan boy by any chance.
This stinks of corruption.
@@highdefinitionstanleytm9614 Not really most Barca fans are fine if they are guilty but they aren't u just like the English media including FD just cant look past ur agenda.
@@highdefinitionstanleytm9614 I don't want an opinion of an English fan u guys' ignorance what goes on in other leagues is beyond me,if u really knew the story you'd know that La Liga found NO evidence about this case and the only reason UEFA are investigating is because of Tebas (La Liga President) who hates Barcelona to the core and is a public Real Madrid fan.So next time u decide to talk shii go wipe your ignorant ass and DO more research
Haha fan boy alert, Barca are guilty and are Spanish rat cheats
If it has nothing to do with UEFA then why is UEFA investigating Barca and contemplating kicking them out of the CL? Hmmm?!??
Out of all the clubs that could have paid off the refs, i feel like Barcelona is the least necessary club to do it at, especially durring the last 2 decades, those squads were absolutely stacked.
stacked due to refs pocket.
Not if you watched the games.
It is funny to see Real fans wanting a stricter punishment for Barca. If Barca becomes less competitive so does your league.
I think it is more impt to have a clean league than have a competitive league but that's just me
Damn
This is so sad. Barca have been excellent on the field beating real madrid 3 times in a few months, conceded the least amt of goals and actually look gd since the days of enrique. But what do football daily decide to focus on? The negatives
Because it gets more clicks sadly.
lol
Why didn’t the video mention that last week the Spanish treasury found no evidence the payments influenced refereeing and released reports corroborating Barcelona’s account that the payments were for refereeing analysis
Becos it’s garbage as is barca kekw
Really disappointed in your lack of research. Something i never thought I'd say under a football daily video. I know it would generate less click but for your channel I hoped you would put what the results of the investigation of the Spanish authorities were and not just saying that la liga wasn't able to investigate Barcelona. Also, you didn't research the fact that Tebas(a self proclaimed Madrid fan) has had an agenda against Barcelona. He backed Bartemou and has asked laporta to resign. He has publicly wished mbappe to join Madrid. He didn't let gavi register with the first team by bending la ligas rules specifically for that. He tried to do the same to Messi back when Messi was breaking through. And he was the one who took this case to UEFA, AFTER the Spanish authorities found nothing.
Absolutely ridiculous accusations, anyone who actually watched barcelonas games in the period where they “paid the refs” would know that these accusations are just nonsense
You sure about that, they got the rub of the green a very significant amount of the time in that period.
Sherlock entered the chat 😳🔥
Notice how the biased English media never once mentioned how the Spanish authorities said that NO EVIDENCE was found?
It's a known fact in Spain that the English media have always hated barça. Lol, remember when every English media said Barca have no chance to sign any players since they were "broke", suddenly every Chelsea target choose barça😂😂😂
They were broke. Just nobody expected theyd sell 50% of they're revenue for 10 years😂
@@mitchellbrough1615 they haven’t sold 50% of their revenue. It’s amazing how stupid you can be L, talking about topics you have no clue about
UEFA is also investigating. Do you not find it strange that Barca paid the head of referees for nearly 20 years to an offshore account and did not document it it on club accounts? Not saying they are guilty but there is a lot of smoke here.
They are broke had to sell future earnings
No evidence YET doesn't mean Bribelona is innocent or didn't do shady stuff🥶
This is why tebas and the fromt office of la liga in general should resign. That no punishment after 3 years is the worst rule ever for any league. Clearly, barca through all those years of their so-called golden generation has always been favored by the refs. Yet somehow they always try to spin those clear evidences around and blame real madrid instead. I'm so glad that I chose to be a Liverpool fan instead of being fooled by that cheating club. This first time, I actually support madrid and hope they lift that la liga cup while barca somehow gets relegated.

Agenda☕
At that time, same as now, Barca and Real are BEYOND popular, they are in tier of their own.. thats why there has been many questionable calls for both teams in CL knock out sttages.. 2 clearly offside goals to push real, or bogus penalty calls that were acting and outside the box given to Barca... Popularity brings views and views bring money... so fifa was making sure 2 most popular teams get all the help they can get.
Is Ramon Calderon the only true gentleman in Spanish football politics?
When Real Madrid won 5 Champions Leagues in the last 9 years, some important games en route to the victory were actually fixed through referee corruptions, most notably:
1.A quarterfinal game vs Bayern Munich in 2017, when Arturo Vidal was red carded, even though he had a clear foul with Marco Asensio. There was a controversy where Cristiano Ronaldo scored the equaliser in extra time, but turned out to be an offside goal.
2.A quarterfinal game vs Juventus in 2018, when Gianluigi Buffon was red carded and Real Madrid scored the penalty through Cristiano Ronaldo that would have killed Juventus after the Italians mounted a 3-0 comeback win.
3.Of course, there was a semifinal vs Manchester City in 2022. Real Madrid's third goal by Karim Benzema should not be happened because the referee didn't recognize the foul that Manchester City players had committed outside the penalty box.
and your point is?
He’s saying Madrid are just as bad basically although Barca dominated for years because of corruption
Problem with your logic on some of these.
1. Vidal was harshly sent off, so fair enough
2. Buffon wasn’t sent off for a foul and the penalty wasn’t awarded for anything he did. Buffon was sent off for his aggressive reaction towards the referee. The penalty was awarded because Vazquez was impeded while in front of the goal. Would the penalty have been awarded in the 90’s or the 2000’s? No. But in modern football yes.
3. It’s called an playing the advantage. If the fouling teams gains no advantage then the attacking team will allowed to play on…
It’s something all referees do are supposed to do.
None the controversial calls that went Madrids way even come close to Chelsea Vs Barca in 2009.

Makes sense y pep hasn’t won a ucl after leaving Barca😂😂😂😂
Honestly, this whole thing is getting tiresome. They paid that money to get detailed reports on the way different referees conducted themselves in games of Barca, Real Madrid, and Athletico Madrid. The club has put them out. This is not illegal although it does give you advantage in the way that you know what to do and what not to do. Any club can do this and it wouldn’t surprise me if they did. Now on account of Uefa Tebas a Madrid supporter took the case to them when LaLiga couldn’t find anything to put against Barca and more specifically against Laporta who he has been campaigning against since the start. Laporta does not let Tebas have the amount of control he wants on Barca and he goes against them. Barca want a super league which Uefa does not want and if they take them out of the champions league I suspect it has more to do with that than the club actually being guilty if something. I don’t think Barca should be punished of anything until the investigation is complete and all the facts are out, once that happens if they are guilty they should be punished and heavily if not all the people and media involved in the case should be buried in lawsuits for smearing Barcas image with no real evidence
Pep was a cheater as a player, and everywhere he's been as a manager has had massive scandals during the time he's there... Must be a coincidence? #Baldfraud
I am sure the paid referee lifted Messi up and kept Man Useless defenders on the ground as he scored the winner in 08/09 UCL final. He also froze Man United Defenders as Messi scored a Stunner during the 10/11 UCL final. What a referee😂😂😂
Keep same energy when ref win
