Home injury experts have suggested that Barcelona president Joan Laporta’s bruise, which left a blue stain under his right eye, was not caused by his injury from a domestic accident, as he claimed when he took off his sunglasses and told reporters. The President of the Brazilian Valladolid Ronaldo shows with his hand that he fell to the ground.
Household injuries usually cause blue spots in various parts of the face if they occur, but Laporte’s (60-year-old) bruise in his right eye points to another cause, possibly a blow from another person.
Instead of focusing on the Barcelona president and his injury, the Catalan press celebrated the team’s 4-0 victory over Valladolid, while Real Madrid fans ridiculed Barcelona’s “sweeping” victory at home because it didn’t equals in importance Real Madrid’s 3-1 victory over another Catalan team, Espanyol, at home.
