Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas pleaded his innocence after the dismissal of Fran Yeste in yesterday's 5-2 win at Athletic Bilbao.
Yeste was sent-off for shoving Casillas to the ground and the keeper said: "Fran Yeste is too strong for me and I cannot judge the work of the referee. He did not push me in the face, but it was a strong push and I fell."
Asked if he felt the referee favoured visiting Real, Casillas added: "The referee has not helped us. There have been strong tackles, melees and it has been good, tough game."
