Álvaro Cervera was very clear in his statement after the match against Granada: “He didn't want to whistle it”. The Cádiz coach now faces a four-game penalty after opening a file to the Competition Committee of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF).
The technician is clear that Foulquier overwhelms Alberto Perea inside the areaTherefore, the referee, Alberola Rojas, should have awarded a penalty. But he didn't, did not even review the images to make the decision. And this was what unleashed the anger of Cervera, who in previous press conferences had already raised his voice for a couple of actions that, in his opinion, had harmed his team.
The video of the foul by Foulquier, Granada player, on Alberto Perea has given a lot to talk about at the national level, since the images leave no doubt. It was a penalty.
These are the complete statements of Álvaro Cervera that have led to the RFEF file: “Everybody has seen it. There is only one person or three, because there is one below and two above, who have not seen it. I just saw it and it has no other explanation than not wanting to whistle it. I know how difficult it is to whistle, but I also know the means now to be able to referee. Still there may be flaws, but not in this. Today's play is for someone to think about it a bit“.
