Flick Defends Red Card for Foul on Yamal

Barcelona head coach Hans-Dieter Flick commented on the red card given during Sunday’s La Liga match against Villarreal. In the 39th minute of the match, Villarreal defender Renato Veiga was shown a straight red card for a rough foul against Lamine Yamal.

Although the referee’s decision sparked debates, Flick believes the official made the correct call. "This is clearly a red card.

It was a very rough play on Lamine, and he must overcome it. Scoring a goal is the best answer," Flick was quoted as saying by Jijantes.

The match ended in a victory for the Catalans—2-0. The final score was sealed by Yamal himself, who scored in the 63rd minute.
