There is nothing more to be done. Real Oviedo could not go beyond a goalless draw in a match where they deserved more and where the referee was the protagonist. Carrión's team ended with nine players after the expulsions of Cazorla and Viñas in the final stretch of a game that had everything, and where the Carbayón team had enough chances to score and take the three points.
Aarón Escandell, Rahim, Costas, Carmo, Nacho Vidal, Dendoncker, Cazorla, Colombatto, Ilyas, Viñas, and Rondón. This was how Oviedo lined up for this 15th matchday of the First Division. The first approaches were for the locals, who came close to scoring with shots from Dendoncker, Colombatto, and Ilyas.
A shot from Viñas, which was not finished at the far post, was also a clear chance to open the scoreboard. For their part, RCD Mallorca also posed a threat in the first half. However, a prodigious save by Aarón from a shot by Virgili ensured the 0-0 result with which we went into halftime.
After the restart, Oviedo kept pushing, and Carrión decided to bring on Hassan. The chances kept coming, but the most important thing, the goal, did not arrive. The final stretch of the match turned into a more direct game, and here the referee took center stage with his decisions. Cazorla and Viñas were shown straight red cards for two tackles that the Tartiere crowd did not understand, and the 0-0 result was how the match ended.
With frustration still lingering among everyone present at the Tartiere, Real Oviedo has no choice but to get up, recover, and fight against all odds. Next match, Sevilla FC at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium.
