'You've all seen it, right?': Osasuna player claims Barca's opener was unfair

Barcelona secured their spot in the Supercopa de España final with a 2-0 victory over Osasuna, but the post-match chatter was dominated by a contentious officiating decision. 

The key moment came midway through the first half when Andreas Christensen's tackle on Jose Arnaiz sent the Osasuna player tumbling and Despite VAR review, no free kick was awarded, and Barca capitalized on the advantage moments later, opening the scoring.

"You've all seen it, right? The push on Arnaiz was very clear. If that had happened to a different team, the decision would have been different too. I don't know if it's a coincidence, because I don't want to sound populist in my statements, but... " Osasuna's David Garcia told Movistar after his team lost 2-0 to Barcelona.

Barca scored their first goal against Osasuna after Andreas Christensen tackled Jose Arnaiz in the middle. The episode was checked by VAR but no foul was given and the goal stood.

Of course, it's painful to lose after containing a big team for so long, but those Osasuna players should just admit they've deserved this defeat.

Barcelona have won the Supercopa semifinal to advance to the final stage. They will face Real Madrid on Sunday, January 14.
