I saw it, the ref was a shame. He began with De la Peña at the first half. At the second half, for to compensate, 2 red cards to Barça, Marquez and Quaresma for nothing. This way up to 6. New record of Liga history. 8vs8. 3 red cards were fair: De la Peña, Cocu and Lopo. The other 3...

It was unbelievable...

Dang! I was one goal off the right prediction :funny:

But serious, How the HELL can a ref give out 6 red cards in one game?? Thats insane!! I can't wait till I see the highlights :funny:

 

[celtic_bhoy]

lol what a match, 3 reds for each team

 

[JJ]

Is that ref the Spanish equivalent of Graham Poll?

Don't you forfeit the match if you are reduced to 7 (or 6) men...or is it that the match is abandoned?

I doubt Mr Alfonso Pino Zamorano will be refereeing anytime soon.

I couldn't wacht it either. I was listening it on the radio until half second half.

I was unbeliave. First half was crazy but second... .. I don't know what the hell did the ref somoke in the halftime.

By the way, it wasn't 6 red cards, it was 7 red cards. Someone from Espanyol staff received a red card in the half time too.

crazy! Hopefully my satellite works soon so I can see the insanity.

Full marks to the ref, I just saw the highlights.

 

[bbranco10]

6 red cards to the players

 

[shokz]

The players shouldn't be so stupid, and the ref is only doing his job.

 

[eddy_87]

gotta go check the highlights now.....sounds interesting

saw the match, not sure about the 6 red cards though, Quaresema one look a bit harsh.

There was a match like this in the World Cup 2002 but i dont remember which teams were involved. Yellow and red cards were just showering one after another. Great stuff to watch. I saw Esp-Barca derby and all i can say that this was one of the most exciting matches i've ever seen in my life. Tamudo, for example, was lucky not having a serious injury. The number of faults he suffered is maybe a record in a single match in soccer history.
P.S. Great to see Ronaldinho back in action!!!
