📹 Football or boxing? Match in Spain marred by shocking assault Sunday’s derby (26) between Huesca and Real Zaragoza, valid for the 37th round of LaLiga 2, Spain’s second division, was marked by a shocking assault. Esteban Andrada, Zaragoza’s Argentine goalkeeper, had already been booked when he shoved Jorge Pulido, a Huesca center-back, near the sideline.

When he realized the card was coming and saw the red being shown, he went after Pulido — who had already gotten up — and punched his opponent. That sparked a mass confrontation. And 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 got a boost in the fight against relegation. Both teams are currently in the LaLiga 2 bottom four with five rounds remaining. The only match still pending this round involves Cádiz, who are currently avoiding relegation.

They will host Las Palmas this Monday (27). This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇧🇷 here.
