La Liga: Four things we learned in Spain’s matchday 24
The Spanish La Liga has experienced quite a few changes every weekend as the race for the title hots up after Real Madrid were held to a draw.
Real Madrid announced on Tuesday that Spain midfielder Isco Alarcon had successfully undergone surgery for acute appendicitis.
Isco’s injury will likely sideline him for a month, and was discovered when he arrived at the Valdebebas sports city early Tuesday morning with severe abdominal pain and was taken to the Sanitas La Moraleja Hospital, reports Efe.
