Elche – Barcelona: live football

Carlos del Cerro Grande who whistles the duel in the
Martinez Valero Stadium between
Elche and the
FC Barcelona. It will be the third time that the experienced and oldest referee in our national and international football has whistled for the Barça team this season. And all the precedents have ended with victory.

Up to now, he has whistled for the Barça club on 42 occasions with a record of 34 wins, 5 draws and only 3 losses. The last one dates back to August 2019 when they lost in the League 1-0 with the
Athletic Club de Bilbao.

Will Elche manage to score again in the first quarter of an hour of the match, against the best defense in LaLiga?
