Le Marca reported that the Spanish referee technical committee admitted that Atletico Madrid midfielder Cork should have received a red card against Vallecano.

Cork pinched his opponent Augusto Batala's neck in Atletico against Vallecano. This incident occurred in the 49th minute of the game, when the referee only showed one yellow card. However, the referee technical committee believed that the penalty was not enough, and they believed that Cork should have been sent off with a red card.

According to reports, due to the large number of players at that time, it was difficult to judge the situation on the court. This fact makes it difficult for the referee to get a correct perspective on what actually happened. However, VAR should have stepped in and reminded referee Alejandro Hernandez.

If the video referee warns and shows Cork a red card, the player will not be able to participate in the next round of the derby against Real Madrid.
