A curious image: Pere Milla admonished Cordero Vega

Pere Milla was once again the hero of Elche, as it already happened in that final duel of the last regular league against Real Oviedo or as it was with the victory against Girona, in the final for promotion to First. This time he not only scored the first of the two winning goals, but also starred in one of the most unique plays of the season.

It was the 77th minute of the game and the Catalan forward had just sent one against his team to the post, with his left leg. In the retreat, the referee punished a foul by Emiliano Rigoni with a warning. Cordero Vega, referee of the match, lost the yellow card on the way without realizing it. Pere Milla picked it up from the ground and raised his right hand “admonished” the referee, who with a smile tried to recover it.

Pere Milla smiled and then let out a cry of rage to regret the missed opportunity. The Catalan striker was decisive in the victory, completing the duel, scoring the first goal and stealing the ball that caused the action of the second by Tete Morente. Before all that they had disallowed a goal for a millimeter offside. Perhaps hence the 'punishment' for the referee.

The one that scored in Mendizorroza, in an unprecedented duel in the First Division and which was Alavés's 500th game in the highest category, was also his first scorer in the elite. A target with which he wanted to remember his own: “I dedicate the goal to my whole family. This is a dream. I was already in First with Eibar and things did not go as expected; you learn from everything”. Now wait Valencia.
