Multiple red cards in matches; Bayern Munich Women see expulsions
Referee showed straight red cards to F. Kett and J. Barcala in Bayern Munich Women’s match against Barcelona Women, leaving both players expelled. Match officials also issued a red and a yellow to Bayern staff, forcing Bayern to continue with reduced personnel on the touchline. In another fixture, Llosetense drew 1, 1 with Constància in Tercera División RFEF Group 11 after a straight red at the 83rd minute, highlighting how dismissals influenced results across competitions today. These expulsions matter because sending-offs change match dynamics, affect substitutions and tactics, and can trigger suspensions for upcoming fixtures.
I'm really struggling to see how that is not a red card.
completely mental. the most obvious red you’ll ever see. how is it not a clear *opportunity* to score a goal?!
