At the Bernabeu, teenager Yamal believed he had put Barcelona ahead 3-2, but Real goalie Andriy Lunin, who was behind the goalline, punched the ball away.
The visitors insisted that the ball had crossed the line, but the referee determined that it had not, and since La Liga does not use goalline technology, the video assistant referee (VAR) was unable to provide evidence.
After Jude Bellingham scored the game-winning goal in the opening minute of extra time, Barca lost the match 3-2.
According to Laporta, in order to ascertain if the goal should have stood, the club will ask the Spanish FA’s Technical Refereeing Committee for the audio and video evidence.
Without excluding, of course, any required legal action, the club will take all reasonable steps to correct the problem if, after this documentation has been examined, it is determined that a revision of the occurrence was made incorrectly, according to Laporta.
