“He could have broken Yamal’s leg.” Grishin – about the removal of a Villarreal player in the match with Barcelona
Former CSKA football player Alexander Grishin said on Match TV that the referee rightly sent off Villarreal player Renata Veiga in the match with Barcelona.
Barcelona beat Villarreal (2:0) on Sunday in the match of the 17th round of the Spanish Championship. Villarreal played in the minority from the 39th minute after Renato Veiga was sent off. The footballer received a straight red card for an infringement in a tackle against Lamin Yamal.
“He could have broken Yamal’s leg.” I immediately said it was a red card. This is a terrifying jump from behind. He had no intention of playing ball. Previously, jumping from behind was considered disrespectful to an opponent – it was mean. The red card is fair,” Grishin said on the air of the “Everyone for the Match!” program. on Match TV.
Barcelona scored 46 points and finished the calendar year at the top of the La Liga standings.
