The news spreads by journalists, by tier, by dugout, by players ... The controversy erupts. The accitana fans complain from the third ring Los Carmenes. Between protests and an arbitrator wrapped up by the microphones of journalists, penalties continue until the decisive ruling Pedro, on the fourteenth launch.
While penalties are shot was heard all. The referee, Jaded by questions and complaints, He articulated a phrase that launched him to fame:
Granada festival wraps the lawn while claims occur. The Granada He had passed round for an alleged refereeing error. Grenadian team lives surf wrapped historic pass in the controversy while Guadix They raise a formal complaint to the Spanish Federation and a demonstration through the main streets is organized accitanas.
