To the 40' minutes of the first-half, the Basque midfield player committed a very hard fault on Sergio Busquets that, in principle, was not signalled by the referee. "For my the VAR would not owe to having called to the referee so that it took him out red to Brais. First pita fault in favour of Kubo and afterwards expels to Brais. No , it has been very hard the card", affirmed the canterano.

On the same line, it added that Gil Manzano was very near of the played and that the past week to the Barça no him pitaron a similar fault in front of the Getafe.

Elustondo Referred with his words to Ousmane Dembélé, the one who was admonished with the yellow cardboard to the 68' minutes of the second half in front of the Getafe. The French committed a planchazo against Omar Alderete in a played in which the defender tried to clear the balloon, although in this occasion the VAR did not act because the referee considered that the entrance did not go sufficiently reckless as to expel him.
