Only one red card for an outfield player this weekend, Granada’s Uche Agbo sent off after receiving two bookings in quick succession late on in the game against Barcelona. Agbo’s assistant coach Jesús Cañeda was also shown a red card though for protesting a little bit too vehemently to the referee, who had just stopped play for what he considered to be a foul after Wakaso won the ball off Busquets and advanced on goal. Both will miss the midweek round of games together with 13 players who completed the five yellow card cycle, including Sporting’s Amorebieta, who is way out in front of the rest after picking up his fifteenth booking of the season. Three of his team-mates, Lillo, Mikel Vesga and Xavi Torres will also be absent for Wednesday night’s relegation clash with Málaga after receiving their fifth cautions, the Andalusians themselves missing Juan Carlos and Recio for the same reason, and Joselu (Deportivo), Inui (Eibar), Bigas (Las Palmas), Erik Morán (Leganés), Fran Mérida (Osasuna) and Montoya (Valencia) complete the list. Incidentally Inui would not have been available anyway as he has been invited by Japan’s prime minister to attend a reception in his home country for the king and queen of Spain! You don’t say no to royalty! ( 04.04.17 )
