Vote first. Then you'll see what the referee decided.
Your vote:
Regla 12 · Faltas y conducta incorrecta (ocasión manifiesta de gol)
“en el resto de acciones (p. ej. agarrar, arrastrar, empujar…) el infractor deberá ser expulsado”
IFAB Laws of the Game (extract)
Inside the box, if an obvious goal-scoring opportunity is denied by an action that isn't an attempt to play the ball, such as holding, the offender is sent off as well as conceding the penalty. The question is whether the hold is decisive in a tussle between the two.
Yeremay scored the penalty in the 69th minute (3-2), and Real Sociedad finished with ten men and won 3-2. The CTA (Spain's referees' committee) rated it a correct call by the referee on Tiempo de Revisión.
What the media say
“Penalti y tarjeta roja, acierto del árbitro”
“expulsó a Pablo Marín, y señaló el punto de penalti, por un agarrón sobre Nsongo bastante claro”
