Barcelona are winless for the third straight La Liga game after being beaten 2-1 by Las Palmas on Saturday afternoon. Hansi Flick's side were very poor, although he felt they should have been saved by at least one penalty decision during the 90 minutes at the Estadi Olimpic.
The first flashpoint came in the 85th minute, when Pau Cubarsi appeared to be tripped by Mika Marmol, although the referee on the field and the VAR decided that there was not enough contact to constitute a foul, as in order MD.

The second incident came in stoppage time when Pau Victor tried to reach a cross that had been delivered. He had his shirt pulled at the time, but again, it wasn't considered a strong enough case for a penalty.

Barcelona are likely to feel aggravated by these decisions, but in the end, there was not enough good against Las Palmas.
