Real Madrid defender Dean Huijsen took responsibility for the loss in the Madrid derby against Atletico.

It was the 21-year-old Spaniard who conceded a penalty and was sent off early in the second half.

"In my opinion, the loss in the derby is my fault. We could have won that match," said D. Huijsen while speaking to OK Diario.

The Spaniard also seized the opportunity to remind about the refereeing scandal that arose.

"If such decisions were made in favor of another team, there would have been a huge scandal and dissatisfaction," added the defender.
