After the clashes between players in the weekend league game, the cup semi-final between Racing and Getafe was always going to be tense. And things blew up near the end when Getafe scored a late goal which assured them of an aggregate 3-1 victory. Local defender Garay fell injured in the build up play, and Uche, seeing that the injury looked serious, asked for his colleagues to put the ball out of play. But Albín ignored him and passed across for Casquero to score, setting off a final few minutes in which tackles were high, with players jostling each other on the pitch after the final whistle. Referee Muñiz Fernández didn't stop play at the time though, and once again there was much debate about whether players should take the law into their own hands if the officials don't. (25.03.08)
