Xavi Hernandez says that any discussion of VAR following Barcelona's significant 2-1 victory over arch enemies Real Madrid is a "joke."
The Barca boss' comments come after rival manager Carlo Ancelotti claimed that he's in "doubt" over the hotly-debated decision rule out a potential late winner for his side during Sunday's El Clasico matchup which was billed as a LaLiga title decider. Ancelotti's Los Blancos thought they'd beaten Barcelona when Marco Asensio netted a goal against the run of play at the Camp Nou in the dying embers.
After a check for offside, however, Spain international Asensio was deemed to have been offside and replays appeared to show that he was marginally ahead of Barca defender Jules Kounde when Dani Carvajal crossed the ball in. Soon after, the hosts scored a 92nd-minute winner of their own through substitute Franck Kessie and this time it counted, putting Xavi's Barcelona 12 points ahead of their bitter rivals with as many games to go.
