<![CDATA[it did happen (but not to us)]]>Remember this?  If you’re too lazy to click on the link, it’s the post that talks about how Mou is training Sergio and Sami to be the back-up goalkeepers in the case that both Iker and his substitute are injured/expelled during a game.

This scenario actually happened yesterday in the second division, and to a former Real Madrid man!

Miguel Palanca, now a winger at Elche, had to put on the gloves and defend the goal after his goalkeeper got his expelled for a foul on an opposition player in the area.  A penalty was called on that play, and Elche, having made all three substitutions already, could only put Miguelito in the goal.  The penalty went in, with the game ending 2-2.

And Jordi tweeted about it, of course.  Like I said before, canteranos stay friends.
