Another round of respectable performances by Spanish referees this weekend, with the only doubts about two or three penalty decisions. Espanyol's Lopo was lucky to get away with a free kick given by Esquinas Torres outside of the penalty area when he pulled back an opponent with his arm late in the game inside the box, whereas Levante's Culebras can feel hard done by after seeing a penalty awarded against him by Megia Dávila despite pulling up Zaragoza's Villa outside of the area. Spur of the moment decisions, but both could have changed the result of their respective matches. (27.09.04)
