Referee for Barcelona vs Real Sociedad Match

The Spanish Football Federation's Referees Committee has appointed referee Alejandro Quintana Gonzalez to officiate the match between Barcelona and Real Sociedad, scheduled to take place next Sunday evening as part of the 26th round of La Liga.

The match will see referee Valentin Pizarro Gomez in the VAR room, while Quintana will lead the encounter on the field.

Barcelona currently tops La Liga with 54 points, tied with Real Madrid, who leads on goal difference and head-to-head results.

Referee Quintana has not officiated many matches for Barcelona, having led one match this season that ended in a loss for the Catalan team against Leganes with a score of 1-0 in the 17th round, making Barcelona's officiating record under him not positive.

Barcelona aims to secure victory in this encounter to continue competing for the La Liga title, in a highly anticipated match that holds great significance for the Catalan team.
