SEVILLE, Spain (Reuters) -Preparations for the Copa del Rey final were thrown into turmoil on Friday when Real Madrid accused the match referees of having "animosity and hostility" towards them and called on the Spanish FA to take action.
Real had boycotted pre-match activities ahead of Saturday's final against Barcelona after the match referee gave an emotional press conference in which he called out the club for criticising him on their in-house TV channel.
