He Leganés-Villarreal This will undoubtedly be the most controversial match of this 18th Liga matchday and the last of the year 2024. The Madrid club has not only relegated two, Oscar Rodríguez and Jorge Saenz. In addition, the referee Muñiz Ruiz indicated three maximum penalties, two for Villarreal and one for Leganés, and twice went to check the monitor at the request of the VAR referee, churches in Villaueva.
The first was 77 minutes into the action when Jorge Saenz was sent off for a difficult late challenge on Barry. Entry that provoked a reaction from the French player. At first, the Galician referee understood that the Villarreal footballer ended up attacking the player of the Madrid club and also showed him the red card. Something that never comes never bears fruit. That’s when they notified him from VAR: “I recommend an OFR (on the field review) so you can check the action of VIllarreal’s number 15.”
Once in front, Muñiz requests “play me the whole sequence, okay? okay, that’s the header, right? Play it in dynamics, not in slow motion a bit.” Besides, right? Mutual. Both of them are the same. come back The first red is very clear, play it, play it to see the sequence.”
As soon as he saw the entry of the Leganés player: “the ball ran away from him. Let it go, let it go. It’s very clear, okay. I remove the player’s red card, the second one, and I turn yellow, okay? Because it’s face to face “It’s fifteen, right?” Churches in Villanueva Confirming: “bib number 15.”
Altamira is not in Muñiz Ruiz’s arbitration report
And the second review took place in the 87th minute, with 2-3 on the scoreboard. This follows the collapse of Pau Cabanes in place due to one hit of Altimira and that at the beginning Muniz Ruiz regardless of the maximum penalty. Then the VAR called him again: “Alex, I recommend an OFR so you can assess a possible penalty”
At the same time in front of the monitor: “It’s like a chin, huh? Let’s take a look? Yes, the photo is ok. Let’s take a look at the dynamics.”
After watching the live sequence repeatedly, the field referee concludes: “stop the contact on the chin, the nose. “Okay, it looks perfect there, it looks perfect there. Obviously it’s a clear occasion but to me it’s clear they’re fighting for that ball, okay? Give me an edge so I can see it’s inside the area.”
That’s where they brought out the offside camera “The ball is clear, it’s inside the area too. And to be honest the chance is not clear, it looks good here. OK, yellow for 2 and penalty.” To which Iglesias responded: “perfect.” In this way the action ends with another maximum penalty, the second for Villarreal, and the fourth goal for Marcelino’s team. Also the yellow card for Altimira. Surprisingly, the Leganés player does not appear for several minutes. Neither in the relationship of the Madrid club nor in the changes.
