Granada has gotten off to a poor start this season—they have received a red card in three consecutive matches, and when combined with the final Segunda División match of last season, Granada players have now been shown a red card in four straight league games.
In the first round of this season, after Deportivo La Coruña took the lead, Granada briefly narrowed the score gap and turned the tide of the match. However, Manuel Rama received a second yellow card and was sent off, reducing Granada to ten men and completely snuffing out their hopes of a comeback.
A week later, the match against Eibar was evenly poised, and Granada was looking for a chance to equalize. But this plan was dashed by Loïc Williams’ red card—he followed in his teammate’s footsteps from the previous game. To make matters worse, Eibar quickly scored a second goal in their subsequent attack, updating the score to 2-0, and Granada suffered another defeat.
After two red cards, Granada had grown wary ahead of their match against Mirandés. But like a sequel to a horror movie, the same "offense" played out again.
This time, Pere Haro fouled Carlos Fernández inside the penalty area and was directly shown a red card. While conceding a penalty kick to the opponent, he also left his team with ten men once more, and Granada ended up losing again.
On this list of red cards, we must also add the one received by Neva in the final round of last season. In total, Granada has been reduced to ten men in four consecutive matches, and they have consistently failed to overcome this disadvantage.
