I’m willing to bet your gut reaction to the news that Sergio Busquets got well and truly knobbled in a challenge with Real Sociedad’s Carlos Martinez during the home side’s 2-1 win at the Nou Camp last night was somewhere along the lines of ‘what goes around, comes around’ – but that doesn’t make the deep laceration that the Barca midfielder suffered any less grotesque…
(Not for the squeamish, etc, etc)
Mmmm. Looks like the Sarlacc pit. Here, have a closer look…
Thankfully (if it’s possible to feel empathy toward Mr Biscuits) the injury isn’t half as nasty as it looks and, with a few stitches involved, Busquets is expected to be fit again by Wednesday evening’s game with Valencia.
