Casemiro, fifth yellow and the red was played

Casemiro will not be in San Mamés. The Brazilian saw the fifth yellow against Cádiz and will not be able to play on Wednesday (9:00 p.m., Movistar LaLiga) against Athletic, in an early match on matchday 21 of the League.

The white midfielder was cautioned by Jaime Latre in an action in which the expulsion was played: a foul from behind on Iván Alejo in the center of the field in the 26th minute. “It is yellow, because it does not hit him with the studs, it hits him with the thigh. He plays it, very hard. Orange”, commented Iturralde González, referee of AS and the SER, in the live broadcast of Sports Carousel.

Among the cast of commentators on the program, there were also those who had sanctioned the action with expulsion. “For me it is red. Casemiro’s pot has gone,” said Dani Garrido, director of Carrusel. For his part, ex-Madrid player Pedja Mijatovic stated: “For me touching the red, rather because of the intention, that he does not want to play, in the center of the field and without any need”.
