Villains

Coaches set a bad example to their boys this weekend, with three of the games' five red cards shown to members of the technical staff. Barcelona's assistant manager Tito Vilanova was given a two match for kicking a ball on to the pitch after he was sent off for protesting, and Sanz (Sevilla) and Esnaider (Zaragoza) were also red-carded. Otherwise though there were only two red cards for players, one for Athletic Bilbao's Amorebieta for picking up two bookings either side of half time against Sevilla, and one straight red for Málaga substitute Albert Luque for a hard tackle on Barcelona's Dani Alves.
