It was one of the controversial acts of the derby played on Sunday at the Metropolitan between Atlético de Madrid and the real Madrid. We refer to one of the last plays of the game, a very difficult tackle by Bellingham about belt.
The Englishman, helpless because of the result and because of the ‘oles’ where the stands followed every pass of the red and white team, put the Argentine striker forward. The referee of the match, Javier Alberola Rojasdecided to show the yellow card to the white soccer player.
The entire bench of Atlético rose to demand the expulsion of the midfielder and after seeing the referee’s decision they could not believe it. Especially Gimenezwhich has been replaced and a Diego Simeone who went crazy when he saw the color of the card.
CHOLO STATEMENTS
“Correa’s play, the last one, was like an expulsion to me. The Bellingham. It seemed tough to me, with his leg up, Correa hit the ball. “I thought it was dangerous for Angelito.”said Cholo in DAZNand then added “Giménez’s is violent. To me it’s a yellow because it goes to the side. Bellingham goes from the front. They’re different plays, Bellingham’s is from the front and Giménez from the side. They were two violent plays but the one from “Bellingham seemed more to me.”
