To be honest, those creeps from Valencia really pissed me off. 26 fouls against Real Madrid - that’s a record across the top leagues so far this season. Moreover, Real committed 6 fouls but received 3 yellow cards, while Valencia received 4 yellow cards for 26 fouls. I don't understand this math

How I regret that the Super League hasn’t been created yet, and Real is forced to put up with this small-time, bush-league crap.
I don’t understand where all this hatred for Real comes from, for instance, against Barcelona, Valencia committed only 7 fouls!
P.S. It seems the fouls market is also worth looking into!

About Real Madrid getting different treatment, some people argue it is exactly right but its because refs call fouls more easily against Real than against other teams

So both Real haters and lovers agree that Real gets different treatment

Both arguments contribute to the foul total against Real lol
I hope we all agree tho Getafe is the creepiest team in La Liga for that too, like a C version of Atleti and Watford combined.
It’s great that you brought up Getafe! The previous two record games for the number of fouls against Real belong to it - in 2025, Getafe committed 27 fouls, and in 2024, 26 fouls. And now, Valencia is repeating these dismal records. If I don't forget, I'll take a look at the stats for the head-to-head matchups between these two shitty teams.
As for that Valencia from the past - I first became familiar with them back when they reached the Champions League final two years in a row, that was a respectable team, unlike the disgrace we see today.
