Barcelona's Eric Abidal is set to miss another final after he was sent off in the league game against Villarreal on Sunday.

Abidal is set to miss the Champions League final and also the King's Cup final against Atheltic Bilbao after seeing red for the second time in a week.

The French full-back was harshly sent off in the semi-final second-leg tie at Chelsea earlier in the week.

His team went on to draw the game on away goals even though they went down to ten men.

But during the Primera Liga game against Villarreal, Abidal was again red-carded after he fouled Nihat Kahveci in the penalty box.

Barca were leading 3-1 with 12 minutes to go and looked to win the game and the league title before Abidal's untimely intervention.

Villarreal went out to draw 3-3 with Barca thus preventing them from wrapping up the title last weekend with three games to go.

Sunday's red card rules him out of the King's Cup final against Athletic Bilbao in Valencia on Wednesday.

Barca coach Pep Guardiola was asked about what he thought about Abidal's second successive red card.

"I never get angry with the players, at least not very often," he said. "It's all about interpretations of actions in particular moments, nothing more."
