Despite being on top in the first half, a straight red card for Dani Vivian in the 61st minute for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity completely flipped the momentum in the match in Valencia's favour. The sending off saw Aymeric Laporte make his second debut for Athletic, but he could not stop the oncoming onslaught from Valencia. He initially deflected Largie Ramazani's strike behind for a corner, but Baptiste Santamaria managed to score a header from the resulting corner in the 73rd minute.

The key concept is that the interpretation of the presence and distance away of a second defender can change the punishment from a yellow card to a straight red card. The referee shows a red card, believing it involves a clear goalscoring opportunity. The action presents two possible scenarios, depending on a second Real Madrid defender, key to the move. If we believe that he could arrive and challenge for the ball, the adequate punishment should be a yellow card.

Atletico Madrid have announced the arrival of versatile Juventus forward Nicolas Gonzalez on a season-long loan deal. Gonzalez arrives in the Spanish capital to bolster Diego Simeone's attacking ranks, with the deal including an obligation to buy for a reported €34m fee. The 27-year-old spent the 2024-25 season on loan at Juventus from Fiorentina before completing a permanent €28.1m switch earlier this summer.

A short corner routine saw Getafe take the lead in the 15th minute, with Liso collecting Luis Milla's pass before seeing his effort deflect off Akor Adams and past Orjan Nyland. But Sevilla restored parity on the stroke of half-time when Juanlu Sanchez's teasing delivery from the right-hand side was headed into his own net by Iglesias. However, Getafe restored their advantage six minutes after the restart through Liso, who combined once again with Milla and picked out the bottom-left corner.
