Broking the average, another controversial play in the Espanyol area. Pepe fell after a thrush and the referee did not interpret a foul.
For more yellow despair, Munuera Montero annulled a goal to Thino Barry seconds later for a millimeter offside. It seemed incredible. Again. As the Royal Society day. What else could happen?

In fact, shortly after the same of Villarreal did not go up to the scoreboard. Munuera Montero pointed out an alleged prior foul of Barry before Ayoze dribbed the goalkeeper and marked at the empty door. Against everything and against all.
From there until the end of the game, Marcelino’s team had to suffer. Normal, there was a lot at stake.
He was able to sentence. Buchanan had it in the 80 ‘after a heel of Pepe, but the Canadian shot was touched by the stick.
The next Villarreal match will be against Osasuna at the Ceramics Stadium (Saturday, 16.15 hours). Come on, submarinooooooo!
