In recent weeks there have been several cases of brain shock in LaLiga. It is not uncommon for a player to receive a blow to the head, either by a clash of these or a fall. The fact is that recently, FIFA began to take it into account. You cannot prevent it from happening, but it does affect a player more than the account for having to continue playing the game, running risk of his life. To do this, The option to add an additional change was activated as long as it is for this cause endorsed by the medical services of the club. In case of proceeding, the team will request this benefit and may have the aforementioned change, as well as the rival team. So far as normal.
In the last days there have been two that activated this protocol. One was that of Loic Badé against Celta de Vigo and another that of André Almeida in front of Getafe. Both were immediately replaced. In the case of Sevilla FC, he finally did not complete the six changes to which he was entitled, staying in four (Caparrós deemed it), although Celta did take advantage of the extra change window. While Corberán decided to make the six, as well as Bordalás, in Valencia – Getafe de Mestalla.
What does the brain shock protocol say?
“A player cannot participate again in an official match before 6 days after the injurywhenever you have completed all the steps of the progressive return protocol to the sport and be completely free of symptoms, “says the protocol. And this is where the problem that can bring Sevilla CF more to the well and give a break to the UD Las Palmas. There are those who assure that it is a simple recommendation and everything indicates that it will be for the remainder of the season. It remains to be seen if the point in question is made up to end up making it clear that 'the protocol' does not go beyond the game in which the player is affected.

The Sevilla duel in Balaídos was on Saturday 10, while before the Canaries they played on Tuesday 13, only three days later. And they did it with Badé on the grass. The Andalusians were imposed by the minimum (1-0), but now it is the islanders who raise the possibility of claiming said undue alignment and the consequent 0-3 in their favor. Is it clear enough? The case is Sevilla would have received the AFE and LaLiga OK to align nice According to 'As'but the palms was not so clear that it was done correctly. “I know that it is in the study phase. It is an issue that directly carry the legal services of the club,” Diego Martínez said Friday at a press conference. A couple of hours later, the UD Las Palmas announced that it would not file a formal complaint finally.
Corberán could not count on Almeida
Also at a press conference Carlos Corberán spoke at the time about André Almeida. “There is a protocol that prevents the player from being in the next six days”revealed the coach of Valencia, to explain the absence of the Portuguese media in the call against Alavés. The team missed him in the defeat against the Basques and, perhaps, he would have changed the movie a lot. Recall that both LaLiga and the RFEF are very reluctant to make these types of decisions in favor of the complainant for the problematic that would be to extend it judicially in a competition with a final date marked. That they tell Osasuna when he denounced the Iñigo Martínez undue alignment this season.
