The referee made a lot of mistakes.

"There were a lot of mistakes for just one game. A match between Real and Barca ought to have a high level of referee," said Ronaldo.

"You can't make correct decisions when you are nervous. It makes me think that it is not just on the field that you win games, a little help from outside helps too.

"My penalty might have been just outside the area, but there are many things that went on. It is difficult when many people didn't want us to win today."

Ronaldo's coach Carlo Ancelotti was more level-headed about Mallenco's decisions, but did agree that Ramos' red card swung the game in Barca's favour.

"I haven't seen it again and it is difficult for me to comment on the decisions of the referee because there were many.

"However, it was the key moment. We were winning 3-2 and controlling the game well, but it is much more difficult to control the game with a player less."

Cristiano Ronaldo blamed Barcelona’s thrilling 4-3 win over Real Madrid last night on the incompetence of match official Alberto Undiano.The Real Madrid forward said: 'The referee made a lot of mistakes. We needed to have a referee who was up to the level of the match. He looked very pale and nervous. I don’t want to justify the result but he was poor.'The current Balon d’Or winner also hinted at an anti-Madrid conspiracy when he said: 'There were people who did not want us to win and Barcelona to be left out of the title race.





The referee made a game changing decision midway through the second half when he decided that Neymar had been fouled by Sergio Ramos and gave a penalty and a red card.
But, Ancelotti said: 'I have not had another look at the incidents so I cannot say if the referee’s decisions cost us the game. It is not something I have discussed with the players after the match.'
