A former La Liga referee revealed that 90% of the referees from the Spanish Football League are from Madrid and the rest from Barcelona.
In a resounding surprise, retired referee Eduardo Gonzalez, 53, who managed 291 games in 17 full seasons, added "90% to 10%" in favor of Madrid.
He continued - in a radio interview - "Whether Barcelona likes that or not, 70% of the Spaniards - except Catalans - are Madridians."
It is not the first time that Gonzales made shocking statements. In 2014, he told the Madrid newspaper "Marca" that "the Spanish referees did not come from Saturn, when you become a referee, this means that you love football, and if you love the game, I do not think that no one Encourages a team. "
"It is my good fortune that I was born in Bilbao, and there are everyone who encourages Athletic, and in the rest of Spain the majority are encouraging Real Madrid or Barcelona, because they always win."
