¡Este video me reconcilia un poco con la humanidad! Los arbitros no son especialmente populares y queridos porque a veces te perjudican, este gesto me ha sorpendido. Grandioso gesto de la aficción del Mallorca. Estos videos deberian ser ejemplo de futbol y no los ultras. Suerte Mateu.

Respect to the players and Supporters ❤

[@EduardoCerdan]

You've got to respect Mateu as a person, he was one that players could talk to as a person but too often he was also the center of attention and volatile in his decisions. Nonetheless, it's positive to see scenes like this in football.

😢😢😢 Football is nothing without any rule and referees exist to guarantee the rules on the football pitch. The football is amazing but ephemeral. The most important is the respect between human being and all referees deserve a moment such this one for one latest refereeing.
