'No one would remember': Laporta advisor Masip claims La Liga tried to rob Barcelona of title this season

Former Barcelona handball player and Joan Laporta's personal advisor, Eric Masip, believes La Liga referees almost denied Barca a chance of winning the league this season.

"Since I was little, I've had the feeling that something always happened to Barça and you feel like a victim," Masip says.

"When you lose and complain about the referee, they always say it's because you lost. I think it's good that, despite winning, you can explain things that don't make sense.

"It's true that the others also apply pressure in other ways. Barça sometimes have to be much better than the other team because unforeseen events always happen in a game, like what happened in Milan or like Real Madrid, who could have made it 4-4. If we had ended up losing La Liga, history tells us they [Real Madrid] would have one more, no one would remember how," Masip adds.
