Barcelona midfielder, Pedri, has called on UEFA to investigate the refereeing performance in their 4-3 defeat to Inter Milan in the Champions League semi-final second leg at San Siro.
Raphinha looked to have won the game for Barca in the 87th minute, but a late equaliser from Francesco Acerbi and Davide Frattesi’s extra-time strike saw the Serie A giants progress 7-6 on aggregate.
“It’s not the first time this happens to us with this referee, UEFA should look into it,” Pedri told reporters after the game.
“Every 50-50 for them … There are things that I don’t understand and which are hard to explain.”
When asked what was difficult to understand, Pedri added: “In the penalty on Lamine [Yamal], which was after given as a free kick, there’s no booking for [Henrikh] Mkhitaryan, which would have been his second booking.”
Polish official Szymon Marciniak, who refereed the World Cup final in 2022, was in charge of the match.
He was also in charge when Barça and Inter drew 3-3 in the group stage of the Champions League in 2022, a result which effectively eliminated Barça.
