Jesus Gil Manzano to make La Liga return four weeks after the controversial Valencia-Real Madrid match

Since Real Madrid's controversial 2-2 draw with Valencia at the beginning of March, referee Jesus Gil Manzano has been “in the fridge”, meaning he has been excluded from selection for La Liga games since the Spanish Football Federation.

Gil Manzano infamously blew a second before Jude Bellingham's game-winning goal that never came, sparking fury among the Real Madrid players He had also sent the Englishman for his reaction.

Gil Manzano has been removed from the refrigerator, and will make his return to League action this weekend. Ace for Brandwill be the on-field referee for Sunday's game between Gerona and The Real Betis in Montilivi.

There's no doubt that Gil Manzano would love nothing more than a controversy-free afternoon in Catalonia on Sunday as he aims to avoid the limelight, something that shone brightly at Mestalla earlier this month.
