Almeria coach Gaizka Garitano was left furious after being sent off in their 3-2 defeat to Real Madrid.

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.

In a snappy interview, Garitano was eager to avoid further sanctions.


Refereeing: "Nothing to say."


Dismissal: "It's fair, I have protested a lot. I couldn't do anything else."


Haven't they let them win?: "You've already seen it. I don't give my opinion, because then they suspend us."


The goals and the VAR: "We have seen what has happened, that is the best summary."


Complaints and sanctions: "I don't usually talk about referees. I don't have words to say what has happened. This isn't the first time something like this has happened to me here."


Staying up: "We haven't won a game yet, but you see how the team competes. Today is a bitch for the kids.
