Real Madrid denied they were considering boycotting Saturday's Copa del Rey final against Barcelona, despite skipping Friday's pregame news conference and training session in protest over comments made by the refereeing team.
The club were angered by Friday's remarks by referee Ricardo De Burgos Bengoetxea and video assistant referee Pablo González Fuertes, in which they spoke about Madrid's frequent criticism of officials in videos broadcast on Real Madrid TV.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti and midfielder Luka Modric had been due to speak to the media at La Cartuja stadium in Seville before the team's last training session ahead of Saturday's high-profile game against their clásico rivals.
