The referee showed six yellow cards to the white team, including the one shown to Bellingham for entering the field of play “without authorisation” after being attended by the medical services.
Fran Garcia saw two cards in just one minute for two reckless challenges and was sent off. Rodrygo, Valverde and Carreras were also cautioned for protests and remarks towards the refereeing team in the closing stages.
