Two red cards this weekend, one for Villarreal’s Dani Raba for a hard tackle on Barcelona’s Busquets midway through the second half of their match, and one for his assistant coach Enrique Alvarez for complaining too much about it! They will sit out next weekend’s games together with six players who completed the five yellow card cycle, Guardado (Betis), Hugo Mallo and Iago Aspas (both Celta), Pere Pons (Girona), Zaza (Valencia) and Bakambu (Villarreal).
