Social Media Stir: Controversy Surrounding Rafa Marín’s Post-Match Photo
The events at Mendizorroza this evening continue to echo. The unjust expulsion of Vitor Roque, Martínez Munuera’s decision – it’s all still making waves. The images do not clearly show the Brazilian forward making contact with Rafa Marín’s leg or executing a reckless tackle.
Nevertheless, despite the lack of clear contact, the Alavés defender has fueled the controversy by posting a picture, supposedly, of the leg where Roque’s stud would have made an impact. With a bleeding wound visible, Marín captioned the photo on his social media, stating, “Images that speak for themselves.”
However, several Twitter accounts have begun sharing photos allegedly exposing that it may not be Marín’s leg but that of a teammate, Álex Sola, revealed by distinctive tattoos. In response, the defender posted a second Instagram ‘story,’ clarifying that it was his left leg, emphasizing that the leg with the marked stud was indeed his and not his teammate’s. Another chapter in this bizarre saga unfolds.
