August 25th, Barcelona reversed Levante 3-2. During the game, Valde was sentenced to a handball foul in the penalty area, causing controversy. Former La Liga referee Raos believes that this should not be a penalty kick.

Raos: "This handball should not be awarded a penalty, because he has retracted his arm as much as possible."

Raos also compared this penalty with the situation in the national derby last year: "The last time this referee checked the VAR monitor case was Joan Améni's handball in the national derby. Since that time was not a penalty, it was even more impossible to award a penalty this time."
