In Real Madrid's 0-1 away defeat to Real Betis, Mbappe's penalty during extra time was saved. Real Madrid's official TV station, RMTV, heavily questioned the decision after the match, arguing that Bartra had entered the penalty area early and participated in play, and therefore the penalty should have been retaken.

In this match between Real Betis and Real Madrid, Mbappe's missed penalty in extra time became one of the most controversial decisions in the early stages of the new La Liga season. Minutes before this crucial moment, a goal by young Real Madrid player Carlos Espi had been disallowed. Then, in the 94th minute, Real Betis goalkeeper saved Mbappe's penalty, but Real Madrid players immediately protested, claiming that a Real Betis player had entered the penalty area before Mbappe completed his shot.

The referee on duty decided not to order a retake, and the match ended with Real Betis winning 1-0. This decision sparked controversy, with Real Madrid's official TV station, RMTV, focusing on the referee's call after the match.

Real Madrid TV argued that when Mbappe took the penalty, Real Betis centre-back Marc Bartra's right foot was already on the penalty area line, and he then entered the penalty area and immediately participated in the subsequent play. RMTV also mentioned Bellerin, believing he also had one foot on the penalty area line at that moment.

Real Madrid TV was highly dissatisfied with the referee's handling and, citing the rules, called the decision "inconsistent enforcement of the regulations by the referee."

RMTV stated: "What astounds us is that a referee does not understand the rules he is enforcing. This is a technical error. Whether due to negligence or incompetence, this violation went uncalled."

The referee's team believed Marc Bartra was not on the penalty area line at that moment. However, Real Madrid TV argued that even if we assume Bartra did not cross the line, he entered the penalty area by encroaching early and ultimately participated in play. Additionally, RMTV also criticized VAR referee Iglesias Villanueva for not alerting main referee Hernandez to address the situation and order a retake, since the final decision must be made by the main referee. Real Madrid TV's position on this controversial decision is clear: "This penalty should have been retaken."
