Atlético Madrid vs Villarreal·LaLiga 2026/27, matchweek 2·Aug 23, 2026
A push is not an attempt to play the ball, which is why Le Normand's red card survived the penalty area
Referee got this right
On-field decision
🟥Red card
Correct decision
🟥Red card
What was given
Nothing given live. After an on-field review, a penalty kick and a red card for Le Normand in the 76th minute.
The call
A penalty kick and a red card. Law 12's penalty-area downgrade applies only where the offence was an attempt to play the ball, and a push is named among the offences that stay a sending-off.
