A calmer second weekend in the league after the opening day excesses, with only one red card in the ten games. That was for yet another Málaga player though, Sergi Darder getting his marching orders for a high tackle from behind on Valencia’s Dani Parejo shortly before half time in their match on Friday evening. Darder follows team-mates Duda and Antunes in to the bad books after both were red-carded last weekend. (03.09.14)
