For an excess of commitment and an awkward nudge, a striker from Andorra was excluded from the 20th second on Friday, during a qualifying match for the 2022 World Cup against Poland (1-4). A record …
The unfortunate Ricard Fernandez certainly made a historic performance on Friday night … Being excluded in the twentieth second of a match – qualifying for the next World Cup, moreover, it had to be done and the 22-year-old striker from Andorra has achieved this sad feat.
Not because he made a deliberate and nasty gesture, but rather because of an awkwardness that pushed him to nudge Polish defender Kamil Glik, the former Monegasque, after the fall of an air balloon .
For some, the sanction seems severe. In the meantime, the poor Andorran selection, already renowned for its rather disappointing results, necessarily suffered from such a game-changer and logically inclined 1-4 against the Poles of Robert Lewandowski, author of a double, and of the Marseillais Arkadiusz Milik, also scorer.
