Referee Alfonso Perez Burull insists there was no early penalty for Real Madrid in Sunday's draw with Real Mallorca.
Kylian Mbappe was felled on six minutes after a clash with Mallorca defender Pablo Maffeo, but the ref waved away the penalty claim.

Perez Burull later told Radio Marca: "Maffeo endures the race with the Real Madrid forward and the charge is legal, Mbappé's fall is not a product of a knockdown by the defender.
"It was well sanctioned. The tackle cannot be considered reckless, hence the Riojan (César Soto Grado) was right in his decision."
