Throughout the LaLiga season, Atlético de Madrid stood out as the only club not to be awarded a single penalty in favor. By the point where the season reached its 23rd day, 19 other teams had already benefited from at least one decisive spot-kick, underscoring a remarkable and widely discussed discrepancy in officiating tenor across the league.
As the campaign continued, observations from coaches, players, and analysts highlighted what some described as a persistent pattern in referee decisions. After the clash with Getafe at the Civitas Metropolitano, Diego Simeone remarked that the team’s fate would hinge on referee judgments when situations warranted attention. He noted that several calls had not favored his squad, including a recent match where penalties could have altered the balance of play. These comments reflect a broader conversation about consistency and fairness in officiating across the competition.
Readers seeking clarity about which teams benefited most from penalties in the 2022-23 league season will find a data-driven overview that presents the outcomes transparently. The analysis aims to answer the central question: which side saw the referees point to the spot most frequently, and how did those decisions shape outcomes during the early part of the campaign? This piece has been updated to incorporate developments through day 23 of the season, ensuring the latest figures are reflected and easy to compare with the rest of the table.
