Minute 84 - RMA leading 1-0; referee awards Villarreal a free kick outside penalty area; they score, so the match is now tied; RMA coach upset, gets very vocal; referee dismisses RMA coach (the "Special One"); subsequently sends off two RMA players - second YC for a reckless tackle, and RC for OAIL?
