Barcelona have player sent off against Monaco after referee shows him WRONG card

Barcelona are in action against AS Monaco.

On Thursday night, the Catalan club began their Champions League campaign with an away tie against French side Monaco at the Stade Louis II.

Garcia was looking to receive the ball from goalkeeper Marc Andre ter Stegen but was instantly closed down by Minamino, who managed to nick the ball away from the defender.After that, Garcia appeared to drag the Japanese to the ground, resulting in his sending off. Matterface said: “I wonder if the referee has brought out the wrong colour card because there’s absolutely no intention to play the ball and ordinarily that would be a red card.“We are being told on our information system it’s a yellow card but I think he’s walking here. That’s a direct red card and that’s the right decision. I think the referee brought out the wrong card.”However, the French side's lead did not last long as Lamine Yamal scored the equaliser with 28 minutes on the clock.
