Jon Driscoll takes a lighter look back at an eventful opening weekend in La Liga, including red cards, bad tempers and a smattering of great goals.

Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann was sent off against Girona for a combination of diving and dissent, while Sergio Ramos also saw red for Real in their 3-0 win over Deportivo.
