Barcelona goalkeeper Garcia s right face was kicked by a shoe nail, and it was clearly visible after the game

August 17th, Barcelona defeated Mallorca 3-0 away in the first round of La Liga. Goalkeeper Joan Garcia was kicked on the cheek by Mallorca player Muric when he was scrambled for the ball in the first half, causing the opponent to have a red card.

After the game, the swelling of the right cheekbones was clearly visible when the Barcelona goalkeeper was interviewed by the sidelines.

Garcia said: "I haven't watched the replay of the collision, but he did kick my face. I don't know which part of it was kicked. If VAR said it was a red card, it would be a red card. I have to apply ice now."

Local time this morning, Garcia came to the Barcelona training base. The latest video showed that the swelling on his face had disappeared a lot.
