Two mortal enemies on the field - but beyond its boundaries, humanity still exists. In the first round match of the Spanish championship between the teams of Madrid and Valencia, a terrible collision occurred, during which the defender Pepe and goalkeeper Iker Casillas of the capital's team collided heads. The Portuguese player, who fell on the lawn at the end of the first half, was taken to the hospital, where he was under medical supervision for the night. Casillas later confessed to journalists that he did not remember the unexpected episode at all. Defender Gerard Pique, who saw the replay of the match on television, wrote on his social media microblog Twitter: "I saw the image on television. Shocking. I hope nothing serious happened and you will return to play." The Catalan added the hashtag #AnimoPepe to his message. On August 23, Barcelona and Real Madrid will clash at the Camp Nou stadium for the Spanish Super Cup. It is currently unknown whether Pepe will be able to play in this match.
