Barcelona coach Xavi was left unimpressed by the manner of Real Madrid's win against Almeria.

Almeria had a 2-0 lead but were beaten with a series of VAR decisions going Real's way. Dani Carvajal's winner for Real came deep into injury-time.

After victory over Real Betis, Xavi said: "I've seen it. I stay with Garitano's words and with a reflection from Relaño. If we speak they punish us, but everyone has seen it.

"I already said in Getafe that there were things that didn't fit me in this league. There are things that we do not control and everyone has seen it. I remember the penalty in Getafe, Joao's goal in Granada... and it's not talked about. We would already have six more points.

"They are not excuses, they are realities. We always get tails. Today we have to talk about the team."
