This weeks highlight from La Liga reinforces why it is important to pay attention to the Ref. As a player you have know what has been called by the man in the funny colored shirt, as is demonstrated in this clip.
Forty-eight seconds into the footage it becomes very apparent Real Madrid's celebration is premature.
Arjen Robben thought he had scored, when a large number of players ran to the corner to celebrate despite the fact that the linesman's flag was up and the referee had not awarded a goal. Real had been in an offside position. Getafe defender David Belenguer took a quick free kick to launch a four-against-two counter-attack that ended with a goal. This goal could ultimately comeback to haunt Real in the race to the title ... a crucial loss of points on this outcome.
