A referee must not be doing something right when he manages both despair and dissatisfaction in two teams playing a match. This is what happened this Monday in the first half of Valencia-Las Palmas where Gil Manzano It’s like he wants to be the star of a match that doesn’t complicate the referee.
The numbers speak for themselves. Having not committed 10 fouls in total and until then a match without violence, Gil Manzano had shown no more and no less than 7 yellow cards by the time the half hour mark was reached. All of them, more than debatable. He drew quickly to remind Fabio Silva for a sin, Pepelu for quickly taking a foul where he requested a barrier (this is well shown, it should be said), then Luis Riojto protest, and then the cards came one after the other Campaña, Essugo, Viti Rozada and Ro Abajas.
