The right-handed Manuel Díaz “El Cordobés”, who has been injured by the first bull of the bullfight that takes place this Saturday in Huesca, has been intervened in the infirmary of the square of “a goring in the right Scarpa triangle, with a upper external trajectory and another internal lower trajectory of 20 centimeters with a serious prognosis”.

He also suffered “a blunt injury to the second finger of the left hand with a comminuted fracture (in which the bone breaks into two or more fragments) of the middle phalanx, with severe soft tissue trauma and also injury to the collateral artery radial and pulley A2”, according to the medical report signed by Dr. Enrique Crespo and to which Efe has had access.

The Cordobés has been overwhelmed in the capotero salute to his first bull, from Salvador Domecq’s ranch, which has cradled him against the boards for a few long and agonizing seconds. He was quickly taken to the infirmary, from where he did not come out again.

Due to this mishap, the third of the Basil fair in Huesca ended in an impromptu hand in hand between El Fandi and the Mexican Joselito Adame, a great winner in the bullfight the day before and who, precisely for this reason, was in charge to replace today the injured Cayetano Rivera.
