Spanish referees upheld the decision not to retake Kylian Mbappé's missed penalty in Real Madrid's 1-0 loss to Real Betis. The referees' committee stated that under IFAB rules, Betis defender Marc Bartra was not airborne when the penalty was taken, so no infraction occurred. Madrid coach José Mourinho had questioned the call, but the committee backed the on-field and VAR officials.
