Direct red card after assist
Comert assisted the second goal and was sent off with a direct red card in the second half of Sunday's clash with Real Sociedad.
Analysis: Comert capped a strong first half display by providing the assist for the second goal, but his afternoon ended in disaster when he was shown a straight red card in the 69th minute for a hard tackle from behind on Pablo Marin and denying goal scoring opportunity, with the challenge also leaving Comert himself nursing a chest injury. The center back will now miss the season finale against Barcelona, a crucial absence that will be difficult to fill with Pepelu the most likely candidate to step in. Comert ends what has been an outstanding individual campaign with 15 starts, 14 of them coming since January, contributing two goals and one assist alongside 26 tackles, 20 interceptions, 88 clearances and six blocks.
Back available Saturday
Comert (abdomen) is back available for Saturday's clash against Atletico, according to Conrado Valle of Diario AS.
Analysis: Comert came through the week's training sessions without any setbacks after returning to collective sessions Tuesday, with Valencia calling him for Saturday's clash against the Colchoneros. The defender had missed two matches with the abdominal muscle injury sustained against Elche, ending a run of 10 consecutive starts, and his rapid return to the squad is a significant boost for a side facing one of the toughest remaining fixtures on their calendar.
