'In another galaxy' - La Liga chief dismisses Real's ref conspiracy claims

Javier Tebas dismissed claims of a refereeing conspiracy against Real Madrid as "living in another galaxy," responding to a Spanish media article alleging bias against the club. This followed Jose Mourinho's accusations that officials made key errors, including missed red cards for Atletico Madrid, during Real's 2-1 defeat last week in which Real played much of the match with 10 men after Dean Huijsen's sending off. Real Madrid issued a statement calling Tebas's comments "intolerable" and "incomprehensible," accusing him of damaging the club's image and Spanish football's reputation, and calling for a league leader committed to neutrality. Real currently sit fourth in La Liga, six points behind leaders Barcelona.
