Player data: 2000-01 → 2021-22 only. Player-level match sheets come from Zenodo (BeSoccer, CC BY-NC 4.0 licence, non-commercial use). No free source provides them after 2021-22: more recent matches are not counted here. Penalties conceded are not attributed to players in the source, so they are not analysed.

González González refereed 21 Liga matches in which Éver Banega took part, from 2009-10 to 2019-20: 1,455 minutes played, 7 yellow cards and 1 red cards. With the other referees, over the same seasons (226 matches, 16,488 minutes), Éver Banega receives 0.39 yellow cards per 90 minutes, against 0.43 with González González.
