News about Ezequiel Ponce

The hosts had less than ten minutes (plus stoppage time) remaining in the match when Elche's Ezequiel Ponce equalized with a header in front of the penalty spot. Ponce came back from a good offside position to retrieve the ball and get his team's attack going, but that was not corrected by the linesman and VAR. Cadiz, the relegation sufferer, has released a statement requesting the cancellation of the game from the goal forwards, referring to the mistake as'resounding and flagrant.'
