Barcelona legend Johan Cruyff has launched a scathing attack on Real Madrid over their criticism of refereeing decisions.
The Spanish capital club enforced a media blackout during the duration of a week ago in protest resistant to the standard of refereeing following the team's 1-1 draw at Villarreal, which allowed Barcelona to shut the gap over the rest the La Liga table to 6 points.
"Madrid are sore losers in search of excuses," Cruyff wrote in their column for El Periodico de Catalunya.
"Against Malaga and Villarreal, they didn't inflict worse than once they played against Betis or Rayo Vallecano.
"They won matches once they failed to need to and in addition they drew matches after they had everything to win. It's just with such ease.
"Nowadays, Madrid either win or they are left angry. There isn't a middle ground."
The 64-year-old then stressed that La Liga title is Madrid's to reduce, while casting doubt over Los Blancos' success in the long run.
"Barca cannot win La Liga," Cruyff said. "They can't win it regardless how great there're.
"They can't win it because, when you're 10 points behind Madrid with 12 matches left, you can't win it not really when you win hundreds of games.
"But football tells me that Barca's growth is proportional to all or any the doubts that Madrid generate.
"While Pep Guardiola's players do not have anything that troubles them, Jose Mourinho's side already see ghosts everywhere."
Barca host Athletic Bilbao therein weekend's La Liga fixture, while Madrid visit Osasuna.
