Posted by During the competitive Barcelona vs. Espanyol game on Saturday, referee Mateu Lahoz issued 14 cautions, 3 red cards, and overturned one of those dismissals.
Recall that Mateu Lahoz, the World Cup referee, issued 17 yellow cards during Argentina’s match against the Netherlands.
FIFA requested him to leave and announced that he would no longer be a referee at the World Cup after receiving complaints about his World Cup officiating.
However, the Barcelona vs. Espanyol match deteriorated into farce when referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz inexplicably dismissed Leandro Cabrera after a VAR review overturned the red card for Jordi Alba and the Espanyol duo of Vinicius Souza and Jordi Alba.
