[인터풋볼] Reporter Oh Jong-heon = The match between Valencia and Cadiz, which had been halted when controversy over racism, resumed. Diakabi, who is being accused of being a victim, has been replaced.

Valencia are playing round 29 with Cadiz and the Spanish Primera Li in the 2020-21 season at Estadio Ramon de Caranchacha in Cadiz, Spain, at 1:30 am (KST) on the 5th. The game was stopped during the first half, but it has resumed.

On this day, Valencia launched a 4-4-2 formation. Gameiro and Gedes were in the front line, while Blanco, Soler, Lazic and Bass played as midfielders. The four hundred were composed by Gaya, Paulista, Diakabi, and Correa, and Domenech defended the goal. Lee Kang-in sat on a bench. Cadiz confronted Negredo, Marie, and Jimenez.

Cadiz scored the opening goal first. In the 14th minute of the first half, as Valencia defenders stagnated, Carla shook the net with a header. Five minutes later, Valencia returned the game to the starting point. Gameiro, who received an infiltrating pass from Gedes, just turned slightly and scored.

The game was suddenly stopped while the game was running until the 36th minute of the first half. In the middle of the first half, Diakabi and Carla collided with Valencia’s free kick. In the course of the ball competition, it did not appear to be foul. But then Diakabi continued to protest something, following Carla. It even spread to the struggles of the players of both teams.

And the game was suspended as all Valencia players, including Diakabi, left the stadium. Since Diakabi is black and the collar is white, speculation is rising that racist remarks have come and gone, as in the case of the European Champions League match between Paris Saint-Germain and Bashaksehir in the past.

After some time, the players returned to the ground and the game resumed. The game has been running from the 29th minute of the first half, when the problem occurred. However, Diakabi, who is being pointed out as a victim, ended the game by being replaced with Guilemon. On the other hand, Carla entered the stadium as it was.
