Football or boxing? Match in Spain marred by assault, have your say
The derby between Huesca and Real Zaragoza this Sunday (26), valid for the 37th round of LaLiga 2, Spain’s second division, was marked by a shocking act of aggression.
Esteban Andrada, Zaragoza’s Argentine goalkeeper, was already on a yellow card when he shoved Jorge Pulido, Huesca’s Spanish center-back, near the touchline.
When he noticed the card and saw the red coming out, he went after Pulido — who had already gotten back up — and punched his opponent.
That sparked a mass brawl.
And it led to one more sending-off for each side: Dani Jimenez (Huesca goalkeeper) and Dani Tasende (Zaragoza defender).
Huesca — who even missed a penalty — were already leading 1-0 and boosted their fight against relegation.
Both teams are currently in LaLiga 2’s bottom four with five rounds remaining.
The only match from the round still to be played involves Cádiz, who are currently staying up. They will host Las Palmas this Monday (27).
