A controversial play in stoppage time left the yellows without points at home after a great game in a packed Gran Canaria Stadium.
Just as happened in the last game of the year in San Mamés, Unión Deportiva Las Palmas was once again left without scoring in the last minutes of the game. On this occasion, for an unfortunate penalty by Daley Sinkgraven on Gundogan that the culé player himself converted.
The yellows had a great first half in which they earned the label of LaLiga EA Sports' revelation team (with permission from Girona). A goal from Munir after a great play by Sandro put the Canaries ahead and unleashed madness at the Gran Canaria Stadium. However, in the second half, FC Barcelona imposed its experience and began to harass the Canaries who held on as best they could until Ferrán Torres' goal. A blow to which was added the injury of the local scorer, Munir el Haddadi, who had to retire to make way for Marc Cardona.
The minutes passed and the Sports Union held their own through possession, high pressure and combined plays until injury time, when a slight but unfortunate push from Sinkgraven, accompanied by an exaggerated fall from Gundogan, resulted in a penalty for the team. culé that the German international himself ended up converting in the final 1-2.
A bucket of cold water for the yellows, who did not hesitate to complain once again about the refereeing through captain Kirian, who complained to the Movistar cameras about a derogatory treatment by the referee and preferred not to comment on the penalty play. Same words as the local scorer, Munir el Haddadi, who participated in the Chiringuito de Jugones program, where he confirmed the anger of the locker room and stated that he did not want to comment on the controversial play.
