Barcelona claimed a narrow victory at San Mames on Sunday. While Athletic were crying out to the heavens for the goal disallowed to Iñaki Williams for handball by Iker Muniain, the 'Cules' were celebrating.
Barcelona sporting director Jordi Cruyff said on Barca TV that "in the end, the VAR, with a replay like this, brings justice", he expressed on 'DAZN'.
"We must congratulate Athletic and Barca, who achieved a victory of great merit on a pitch that is very tough," added the Barça representative.
"You can complain all you want, but the VAR does justice 99% of the time. Too bad for Athletic Club, but it was a handball. Congratulations to Athletic for the pressure, but we got the three points," he said.
