Cultured Spanish Football?

I was following the La Liga game last night between Granada and Elche, well, I did have a financial interest in the match.

With both teams struggling near the foot of the table, it was never going to be a classic.

However, even I was surprised by the happenings during the ninety minutes which Granada won 1-0. There were nine yellow cards, four for the winners, while one yellow, became red for Elche.

England has a reputation for 'muck and bullets' football, but it is very rare that this amount of cards are produced in a game.

What sort of challenges/offences were the cards being handed out for Abbo?
The Continent has a reputation for dishing or cards for the slightest touch!

Oh they were tough challenges alright Eve, you would have been proud of any of them, even the so called professional ones.
