Bias?

Recently, my friends and I took part in a competition. This game, like soccer, had 3 referees.

My friend did something that by right, should get himself and his opponent out of the field together. However, the referee insisted that his opponent was to be alive. We would have lost that game anyway; so it doesn't really matter. We were livid because we wanted justice. However, we stopped arguing so not to make a fuss. I know we are clean.

I got to know some of the guys from the other teams. One of them had a complaint about unfair refereeing. I had a personal chat with him and without showing my cards, he confirmed that we were talking about the same player who got this preferential treatment.

This isn't concrete proof but what are the chances? The same team. The same player. The same situations. Both time, this player was allowed to play on. Thanks for opening my eyes.
