Inaki Pena Calls It a "Simple Game Situation"

Elche goalkeeper Iñaki Peña shared his thoughts regarding the collision with Real Madrid forward Vinícius Junior. During the match, the Brazilian player’s knee hit Peña’s face, causing significant damage to his nose.

Following this incident, Jude Bellingham scored a crucial goal for Real Madrid, and the match ended in a 2-2 draw. After the game, Elche head coach Eder Sarabia stated that Vinícius’s action constituted a foul.

However, Peña chose not to take the matter seriously. “Vinícius’s strike?

It’s nothing, just a regular game incident. He hit me with his knee due to inertia, no big deal.

I have nothing else to say,” said the goalkeeper, who is currently on loan from Barcelona. Additionally, Iñaki Peña was named the best player of the match.
