Azpilicueta regained his smile in hospital

César Azpilicueta, captain of Chelsea, regained his smile hours after he was admitted to a health center in London after being kicked in the face in Saturday’s Premier match against Southampton.

Azpilicueta was taken off the pitch on a stretcher in the match his team lost at Stamford Bridge against Southampton (0-1) after receiving a violent impact. He was assisted with oxygen and quickly transferred to a hospital, where tests were carried out that ruled out rest or serious damage to his face.

The Spanish international was conscious at all times and was able to talk to his wife, although during the night he suffered a headache from the force of the blow that Sekou Mara accidentally delivered to him during a Chilean attempt.

This Sunday afternoon, Azpilicueta posted a message on his social networks about a photo of him smiling and gesturing with his thumb as a sign that he is in a good mood. “Hello everyone! Thank you all for your love and messages of support! My family and I want to thank everyone who took care of me since yesterday’s incident,” she wrote.

“From Chelsea’s medical team, to teammates and opponents, to St Mary’s and Cleveland Hospital and to all the staff and doctors: a big thank you from the bottom of my heart. Now it’s time to get well and see you soon immediately!” the field!”, concluded Azpilicueta.
