The coach of UD Las Palmas, Diego Martínezdid not want to comment this Friday on the fact that there were 31 fouls and 15 cards in the match between his team and CA Osasuna. Playing time was extended by 13 minutes, which UD Las Palmas took advantage of.
“Many interruptions,” said the yellow coach. In Martínez’s opinion, this opened the door to an imbalance in the game.
The referee of the match was Gil Manzano and Pizarro Gómez is the VAR referee this Friday, that is, both in the position of responsibility on the day of the match of UD Las Palmas against Mallorca and from where it came a strange yellow defeat after his intervention.
UD Las Palmas and CA Osasuna tied in Gran Canaria (1-1) in a match dominated by the rojillo team from the 53rd minute thanks to Aimar Oroz’s goal. Besides, Osasuna played with numerical superiority on the field due to the dismissal of Dário Essugo. However, the yellow team managed to level the score in the 98th minute through a free kick converted by Adnan Januzaj, whose shot hit a player in the visiting barrier.
The referee stopped the corner kicks to warn the players not to stick against the standard announced last summer. Before the expulsion of Essugo something was different. In the 65th minute of the clash between Las Palmas and Osasuna, the The Canarian players asked for a penalty due to Iker Muñoz’s possible grab on Alberto Moleiro inside the area, with the score 0-1 in favor of the rojillos. Gil Manzano was summoned by VAR to review the play.
The grip seemed obvious to be called a penalty, and that was originally what the referee checked. As the announcement of the maximum penalty seemed about to take place, Gil Manzano went to inspect the play with greater precision And there He realized that a few seconds before, Fábio Silva He was trapped in a corner, between two Osasuna defenders.
Silva, trying to get away, let go of his arm and the referee, who had already gone to see if there was a penalty or not, assumed he had elbowed Iker Muñoz. after that, chose to void the possible penalty action and punish a previous foul of the attack, showing Silva a yellow card for the elbow.
It is what it is. In the opinion of Diego Martínez, so many cards can be caused by “the dynamic of the game that influences, I think the team has done well, others that we need to improve, but it is necessary to get points again for permanenceand for me these intangibles speak volumes and are very good about the team.”
“No matter what happens, we must continue workingbut the worst thing in life is death, in a team it’s relegation.” Because of this, he insisted on continuing to think about staying in LaLiga EA Sports. “It’s not easy,” added Martínez.
The coach of UD Las Palmas said that “this is football” and that “in “Transfers are where they did us the most damage.”. Regarding the dismissal of Dário Essugo, he said that “the management of emotions” was influential because “it is a game in stages” and “the point is very important after many difficulties.”
