Video/ Kicked Barcelona goalkeeper in the face, Albanian striker is punished

Vedat Muriqi has had a very bad start to the new La Liga season with Mallorca, after being sent off after just 39 minutes of play in the opening match against Barcelona.

After an attack in the Catalan area, Muriqi stretched out his leg to catch the ball, but instead, he found the head of goalkeeper Joan Garcia.

The referee initially punished the "Pirate" with a yellow card, but after a VAR review, decided that the color of the card should be red.

This made things worse for his team, which was not only losing by two goals, but was also left with two players less, as Morlanes had also been sent off 6 minutes earlier.
