Barcelona forward Raphinha has been struggling with an injury after kicking a fridge in anger during the Europa League play-off clash against Manchester United earlier this month.
Raphinha, 26, played a pivotal role for Barcelona in the opening leg of the tie by bagging a goal and an assist at the Nou Camp. But the Brazilian was visibly frustrated when he was withdrawn by Xavi Hernandez in the 82nd minute.
The former Leeds man lashed out after coming off - and it appears as though he's been paying the price for his act of petulance. There had been speculation that Raphinha had been dropped by Xavi for the game against Cadiz a few days later because of his behaviour. However, it has now emerged that Raphinha's absence from the starting XI was injury-related.
