    Abdel Abqar: Getafe defender sent off for grabbing genitals of Atletico Madrid's Alexander Sorloth

    Atletico Madrid's 1-0 La Liga victory was overshadowed by Getafe defender Abdel Abqar's dismissal for touching the genitals of their striker Alexander Sorloth.

    With the hosts leading through Nahuel Molina's long-range strike into the top corner in the eighth minute, Saturday's match descended into chaos seven minutes after the second-half restart.

    Referee Miguel Angel Ortiz halted play and indicated a video assistant referee (VAR) check for a possible red-card offence.

    Replays on the big screens at Estadio Metropolitano showed Abqar touched Sorloth's groin during an off-the-ball altercation, with the Norwegian forward then pulling his opponent to the ground in retaliation.

    Atlético Madrid v Getafe: Unbelievable – Abqar pinches Sorloth in the groin and is sent off following a VAR review

    In the 55th minute of Atlético Madrid v Getafe, on matchday 28 of La Liga: the Colchoneros are leading 1–0 thanks to an early goal from former Udinese player Nahuel Molina. Suddenly, Abdel Abqar, the visitors’ defender, is brought down by Norwegian striker Alexander Sorloth, seemingly for no reason, with the ball nowhere near him. VAR investigates the incident and finds something truly unusual. 

    The footage shows that Abqar gave the opponent who was running past him a proper pinch right where the sun doesn’t shine, provoking a furious reaction from the former Villarreal player from Norway. The referee’s decision after reviewing the footage? A red card for the defender, a yellow card for the striker.

    😱What was Abqar thinking? Sent off for a forbidden pinch

    The match between Atlético de Madrid and Getafe on matchday 28 of LALIGA left one of the most surreal sequences of the season. At the start of the second half, the visiting defender Abdel Abqar was sent off after a peculiar assault on the local forward Alexander Sorloth, in an action that went unnoticed by the human eye but not by technology.

    While attention was focused on another part of the field, the VAR alerted referee Ortiz Arias about an incident on the halfway line. After reviewing the footage, it was confirmed that Abqar gave a pinch to the Norwegian attacker's private parts without the ball in play. Sorloth reacted by knocking down the defender, which earned him a yellow card for protesting, but the greater punishment was for the Moroccan.
