"Barcelona" suffered their second defeat of this season in the Spanish "La Liga" championship on Sunday.

The Catalans lost 0:1 to the players of "Real Sociedad" away.

Indeed, it was "Barca" who first sent the ball into the opponents' net, but the goal scored by Roberto Lewandowski in the 13th minute was disallowed due to a minimal offside.

It should be noted that Spain uses a semi-automatic offside detection system, which registered that there was a Polish player's toe in the offside position.

After the match, the Catalan strategist Hansi Flick did not hide his anger at such a decision, but stated that it was not the referee's fault.

"It is obvious that it was an incorrect decision. I saw the replay, and everything is clear to me. Unfortunately, we have to accept such a decision.

It was not the referees' fault. We are all human and make mistakes; unfortunately, this one was exceptionally significant.

I was certainly not angry at the referees. I just said that it was a wrong decision," said H. Flick after the match.
