The controversy over the penalty against Vitor Roque: “It could be red”

The Real Betis-Barça controversy came in the 63rd minute, when Frenkie de Jong, the Blaugrana midfielder, knocked down Vitor Roque, a Betis striker, in Iñaki Peña's area. The referee, Muñiz Ruiz, did not signal the maximum penalty at first, but was warned by the VAR. After reviewing the images, the referee changed his decision and signaled the penalty, in addition to the yellow card warning to the Dutchman. Complaints from the Barça coach, Hansi Flick, earned him the red card.

For Iturralde González, SER and AS analyst, The penalty was well marked, but there should have been an expulsion: “He steps on his boot. He runs from behind and it's a penalty. It can be red.” In addition, he left a reflection on why Barça should have been left with one less: “When it's not red, that's when you're fighting for the ball. But when running behind, it is not a dispute for the ball.”
