Málaga and the referee fail in Gijón | BE Malaga | SER Deportivos Málaga

A new goal from Djurdjevic gave Sporting three points against a Malaga who played a great first half, dominated the game more but did not hit with their chances while the Gijoneses did, with one of the few they had.

Málaga is one of the best away teams and at El Molinón they came out to prove it from the kick-off by putting a fence around the goal defended by Mariño to the point that the first four minutes were played in the vicinity of the local area.

Málaga was about to go ahead on the scoreboard in a launch from outside the area by Rahmani to which Martiño responded with a spectacular stretch that avoided the goal to the amazement of the Malaga team.

Sporting responded with a quick counter that left Manu García on the edge of the area from where he tried to surprise Dani Barrio, a goalkeeper from Gijón and trained in Mareo who defends the goal of Málaga and who responded well to the rojiblanco’s shot.

Midway through the first half, Sporting began to shake off the Andalusian dominance and approached the rival goal with more danger, although the visiting defense and goalkeeper were very attentive to any action.

Before the break, Málaga enjoyed another chance, although this perhaps unintentionally when Quintana headed back a corner and the ball went a few inches from the post before the shocked face of the Sportinguista goalkeeper.

Málaga did not take advantage of the chances they had in the first half and found themselves with a goal against in the second minute of the second after a great action by side Guille Rosas who dribbled into the area and took a great cross for Djurdjevic mark to pleasure before the passivity of the centrals.

With the goal, Málaga decidedly went on the attack in search of the equalizer and returned to lock up Sporting in their field although the Gijón defended themselves well and when they had the ball they tried to touch so that the minutes went by and looking for some against.

The referee whistled a penalty by Babin’s hand, but after consulting the VAR he revoked his decision since it is clear that the rojiblanco center-back has his arms completely glued to his body.
