  2. Croatian football league

    Last weekend, a derby was played, which ended with a victory for the guests. Referred well on the first one, but not so much on the second one. The fans of the guests (not the club officially) resent, according to them, the uneven criteria. There was even a video made with situations that offend the head referee.

    My situation is from the second game. Below is the video.
    So, a yellow card was awarded. After OFR, the head referee changes the decision to a red card. Right or wrong

    1. And Del Cerro Grande will be VAR (Del Cerro is from Madrid, so during his career as an active field ref he couldn't handle Madrid or Atlético games.

      Miguel Sesma Espinosa (recently promoted this season) has been appointed to Villarreal - Athletic, i.e. a clash between two CL teams. VAR will be González Fuertes, who is back after an informal suspension (what here in ESP call "nevera", lit. the fridge) for overlooking a clear offside as VAR in Alavés - Atlético several weeks ago)
