There was a lot of complaining but no celebrating for Barcelona as it began the defense of its Spanish league title on Sunday. Barcelona couldn't overcome Raphinha's first-half red card for elbowing an opponent, and then didn't get a VAR decision to go its way late in the game, in a 0-0 draw at Getafe in their league opener. “If this is the product that the Spanish league wants to sell, then it's an embarrassment,” said Barcelona coach Xavi, who himself was sent off in the 70th for arguing with officials over a foul not being called.
