Impact Mascarell was taken off the field after what looked to be a somewhat severe injury, as his foot was stepped on in a dangerous tackle, appearing to have been affected in the foot or ankle region. This does not look to be good for the club, as he has started in five of their past seven matches and looks to now be set for some time on the sidelines. Nothing is set in stone yet, with the player having yet to undergo testing and an additional two weeks to recover until the club's next match on April 13 against Real Madrid. He was replaced by Samu Costa.

His next chance to play will come against Granada on March 16 just before the international break.
