| Discreet performances by most of our boys in black,
although a high number of red (5) and yellow (55) cards were shown. Carmona
Méndez had no choice though in the game between Osasuna and Espanyol
with the two sides laying in to each other right from the kick off, and he
produced four yellows for the home side and eight for the visitors. Curiously
though (presumably by chance) nobody was sent off, and none of the cards went
to players who were on the verge of suspension for accumulation of cautions. A
good man to take with you to the Casino? The same cannot be said for
Téllez Sánchez, who returns to the top of our chart this week
after another over-zealous performance. He produced eight yellows in a fairly
clean game, sending off Víctor for a second bookable offence when
neither really warranted a caution. On past history though, the disciplinary
committee will probably uphold the referee's word and suspend the player.
