The expulsion of Vinicius at the Mestalla, last Friday in the dana-delayed league match between Valencia and Real-Madrid, continues to be the talk of the town. Yesterday, finally and after days of waiting, it was revealed that the Brazilian had to serve a two-match suspension for attacking goalkeeper Dimitrievski, after which he was sent off. The debate was intense at yesterday’s gathering at Cope’s ‘El Partidazo’.
When Juanma Castaño asked some journalists and collaborators – who the previous day had said that if he lost two games it would be a shame – about whether the punishment received by the Madrid player, who could participate in the Super Cup, was fair, opinions are mixed: some consider it excessive, others insufficient and others seem appropriate.
Elías Israel said he thought it was “a lot” and Luis García-Rey, who he thought was “a savage”, added that “it’s not even red”. Migeul Rico, for his part, said “it is right if we stick to the minutes” but added that “it is not so general.” “I’ve seen players sent off for less protest than Vinicus when he was sent off.”
Mónica Marchante, for her part, said that “it depends on what you compare it to.” “If you do it with Flick’s sanction, it seems small to me; for the truth itself, it seems fair to me. There have been more serious penalties in other cases and by comparison it seems small to me.” Finally, Mladini said that “it is justified.” “Lewandowski got three for a simple gesture.”
