Real Madrid fullback Arbeloa slams LFP over anti-Barca chanting charge

Real Madrid fullback Alvaro Arbeloa has slammed Spanish Liga authorities over their charges this week.

Real have reported Real Madrid for the chants sung about Barçelona and Lionel Messi during the Celta Vigo match.

"They never cut us any slack. Now it looks like they want to make an example of Real Madrid over insults too. Maybe we're held to higher standards than other clubs," rapped Arbeloa.

"It's hard to draw the line between which chants are and aren't violent. Nobody likes that sort of chant. The Bernabéu crowd have always cheered us on and we're very happy with our fans' attitude."
