The referee who will blow the whistle this Sunday for the derby between Barcelona and the spanish at the Olympic Stadium. The meeting will be presided over by the Andalusian international referee, Munuera Montero, one of the most trusted referees currently in the CTA.
This will be first time that he whistled this season for the azulgranas and for the second time for the parakeet club, which he refereed in a 4-1 defeat at the Santiago Bernabéu on September 21. The Malaga referee directed five days; the latter is certainly the Madrid derby between Atlético de Madrid and Leganés.
This is about second derby between two city teams led by an Andalusian referee. The first the time is in the 2019-2020 season at Camp Nou which the Barça team almost won on matchday 35 on July 8. This was the season hit by COVID.
Of those Barcelona whistled him through his refereeing career with a total 26 meetings. Their balance is 18 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. The last time was last season when they lost at home to Villarreal at home by 3-5, a match held on January 27 of this year.
