At 76 minutes into the match, a tackle by Eden Hazard ended up costing Carlos Akapo the substitution, who retired with obvious gestures of pain. The Cádiz player came before a divided ball and found the plate of the Belgian footballer. After being treated by the local medical services, Sergio González was forced to introduce Iza Carcelén in his place. Once the match against the whites is over, the Equatorial Guinean published an image on his Instagram account of how his foot had ended for said entrya.
Despite the complaints of the Cadista staff, the Real Madrid player, who had entered the pitch after match time, only saw the yellow card in the 74th minute. As reflected by the emoticons included by Carlos Akapo in the photograph of his foot, visibly bloody, the card seen by Hazard was little “punishment”. The Cadiz team, which will face Deportivo Alavés, already relegated, on the last matchday, is waiting to find out if it will be able to count on the Equatoguinean defender, who left the pitch of the Nuevo Mirandilla limping.
