Villarreal fell 1-3 when they hosted Barcelona in the LaLiga continuation match. Villarreal coach Unai Emery alluded to Pique's handball which should have led to a penalty.

Frenkie de Jong, Memphis Depay and Philippe Coutinho scored three goals for Barcelona. Meanwhile, the Yellow Submarine team's reply was scored by Samuel Chukwueze.

In that match, there was a controversial thing according to Unai Emery. In the seventh minute, a back pass from Eric Garcia endangered Barcelona. Then the ball was kicked by Arnaut Danjuma, blocked by Gerrard Pique, but seemed to hit the hand.

Unai Emery alludes to Pique's handball. He demanded why the match officials in charge of viewing VAR did not review Pique's handball.

"Everyone in VAR is a person who has to take responsibility. I believe in VAR, but I don't understand who is there. Someone has to explain to Villarreal why the penalty was not announced," Emery said in As.

"Perhaps, Barca don't like this decision because it might consider him to have more power than anyone else," he added.

Not only penalties, Villarreal were also harmed by a controversial goal from De Jong. Memphis Depay was judged to have been in an offside position when he received Jordi Alba's pass before the wild ball from his shot was struck by De Jong into a goal.
