Sergio Busquets’ humiliating act caught on camera before his “miracle recovery”

 

 

In Barcelona’s 1-0 Champions League triumph over Dynamo Kiev on Tuesday night, Sergio Busquets was up to his old tricks.

With Ansu Fati’s goal 20 minutes from time, Barca moved into the second position in Group E for the first time since defeating Kiev by the same scoreline at the Nou Camp last month.

The Catalans were obliged to defend their one-goal advantage in Ukraine, and with just over a minute of regular time left, Busquets made a humiliating attempt to run down the clock.

After going in for a challenge on the edge of the box with Dynamo’s Oleksandr Karavayev, the Spain international was seen rolling around on the floor, his leg in apparent discomfort.

When no foul was called and the home team continued to attack, Busquets made a miraculous comeback, jumping to his feet and sprinting back to assist his teammates in defense.
