Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea has been confirmed as the refeee for Sunday’s Clasico clash between Barcelona and Real Madrid at the Camp Nou.
The Basque official will take charge of the game along with assistants Roberto Díaz Pérez Del Palomar and Jon Núñez Fernández. César Soto Grado will be in charge of VAR.
If you are looking for omens then it’s pretty good news for Barca. Bengoetxea was also in charge in the Super Cup final which Barcelona won 3-1.
He’s also remembered, not very fondly, by Madrid fans for sending off Cristiano Ronaldo against Barcelona back in 2017.
