The Atletico Madrid versus Getafe game generated significant debate amongst supporters due to an incident during the 55th minute. The central point of contention involved Getafe’s defender, abqar, and his interaction with Atletico’s attacker, Alexander Sorloth. Specifically, there was a contact made by abqar to Sorloth’s private area.
Following a thorough examination of the video footage reviewed by the VAR, referee Miguel Angel Ortiz Arias immediately took action. He directly ordered abqar to receive a red card for the infraction. Sorloth’s response was swift; the Norwegian striker reacted by pushing abqar to the ground, resulting in a yellow card for himself.
The sequence of events clearly demonstrated abqar’s contact with Alexander Sørloth’s private area, prompting a furious reaction from Sørloth who subsequently pulled abqar down. Consequently, abqar was shown a red card. 😳🟥 pic.twitter.com/pD7IFmwq4G — CentreGoals.
