With the score at 1-0, Oviedo's Thiago broke into the box and was challenged by Betis midfielder Sofyan Amrabat. The contact sparked immediate protests from the visitors, who demanded a penalty and a sending-off for the Moroccan.\n\nThe referee, however, waved away the penalty appeals and instead showed Amrabat a straight red card for his challenge. The decision left Oviedo incensed, believing they had been denied a clear spot-kick that could have leveled the game. The incident became a major talking point after the match, prompting the RFEF's 'Tiempo de revisión' (Time of Review) committee to analyze the referee's call.\n\nOn Tuesday, the committee released its findings, fully backing the on-field decision. According to the review, the ball had already crossed the byline before Amrabat made contact with Thiago. As a result, the play was dead, and no penalty could be awarded. The red card, however, was deemed correct because the challenge itself—though occurring after the ball was out of play—was considered reckless and dangerous, warranting a straight dismissal.\n\nThis analysis clarifies the dual nature of the situation. While Oviedo felt they should have had both a penalty and a numerical advantage, the refereeing committee determined that only the red card was justified. The fact that the ball was out of play nullified the penalty, but the tackle's severity still merited a sending-off. The decision means that Betis played the majority of the match with ten men, yet still managed to secure a comfortable victory.\n\nFor Oviedo, the ruling is a bitter pill to swallow. The team, currently fighting for promotion in the Segunda División, saw their hopes of a Copa del Rey upset slip away. A penalty at 1-0 could have changed the momentum, but instead, they found themselves facing a resilient Betis side that capitalized on their man advantage? Actually, Betis were down to ten men, but they still dominated. The visitors will argue that the initial non-call altered the course of the match.\n\nFrom Betis's perspective, the outcome is a testament to their depth and discipline. Losing Amrabat, a key midfielder, might have disrupted their rhythm, but they adjusted and extended their lead. The red card means Amrabat will likely face a suspension in domestic competitions, a blow for the team as they juggle league and cup commitments. However, the victory keeps them on track for a strong season.\n\nThe incident also highlights the role of the 'Tiempo de revisión' in Spanish football. This post-match committee, established by the RFEF, reviews controversial calls to ensure transparency and improve officiating standards. While it does not change results, its analysis provides clarity and accountability. In this case, it has supported the referee's judgment, emphasizing the importance of the ball being out of play at the moment of the tackle.\n\nCommentators have noted that Amrabat's red card was his first of the season, and the tackle, while late, was arguably more clumsy than malicious. Some pundits suggest that if the ball had been in play, the referee might have deemed it a penalty challenge and shown a yellow card. The timing of the ball crossing the line made the decision binary: no penalty, but a red for the dangerous nature of the contact.\n\nLooking ahead, the result leaves Real Oviedo with a sense of what might have been. They exit the cup competition, while Betis progress, bolstered by a win that could have been far more costly. For the neutral observer, the 'Tiempo de revisión's report serves as a definitive explanation of a moment that could have turned the game on its head.\n\nBased on reporting from Fútbol.","news","The RFEF's Time of Review committee confirmed the controversial decision to deny Oviedo a penalty while issuing a red card to Betis' Amrabat, stating the ball had crossed the line before the tackle.
