Mallorca had a great last season, finishing within reach of the international stage, but in the current one in the Balearic Islands, the atmosphere is not great at all. The club from Palma de Mallorca is currently in 16th place, just six points above the relegation zone and faces a tense fight for survival. The red and black team had opportunities to win an important point in the clash with Real Sociedad. However, they failed to last the entire second half with one less player. In the third minute of stoppage time, Mikel Merino scored for 2:1 and brought victory to the visitors. The hosts were left furious because of the lost lead and also because the referee Pablo González Fuertes, showed two yellow cards in the first-half stoppage time to captain Antonio Raillo. He got the first one because of the foul and the second because of objections and ironic applause to the referee for the previous decision.Mallorca 1 Vs 2 Real Sociedad Highlights pic.twitter.com/lAO1XCMIta— Footy Weekly (Banky) (@FootyBanks) February 19, 2024 Particularly angry with the referee Fuertes was the striker of Mallorca, Abdon Prats, who referred to the idea of introducing a blue card and suggested that one should be devised for the referees as well.”We have to dedicate ourselves to what we are doing. The topic of the blue card comes up, so maybe they should invent one for the referees… We all know Antonio, he lives for football, just like Mallorca. His gesture towards Pablo followed when he saw the card because he thought he didn’t touch Sadik. There was no aggressive intent in that gesture, it wasn’t such a big deal, especially not two minutes before the break,” Prats suggested.Introduction of a ‘blue card’ blasted by Premier League managersLet’s remind you, the blue card could begin to be awarded to players for tactical fouls, but also for disrespecting the referees, and unlike the red one, which means the end of the game, this one would bring a temporary suspension, presumably for ten minutes. It would be interesting to hear what Prats specifically means when he talks about the card for the referees.##NAJAVA_MECA_7881131##
