Mouctar Diakhaby received an insult from Juan Cala from Cadiz, which triggered his teammates to leave the turf half an hour into the game
What a moment of solidarity and unity! Valencia players abandoned the pitch in the La Liga matchday 29 clash against Cadiz after one of their players was racially abused!
They left the turf half an hour into Cadiz's match due to an unacceptable offence their Mouctar Diakhaby, the French player of Guinean descent, received from Juan Cala. After an offensive play by Cadiz, Cala and Diakhaby collided. The home player said something to him, and the Valencia defender lost the plot, with the ball still in play, chasing Cala to ask for an explanation.

After only a couple of seconds, his teammates joined him and went to the dressing room tunnel.
However, the match resumed after about 15 minutes, with both sides back on the ground, including Cala, while Valencia's coach decided to leave Diakhaby on the bench and replace him with Guillamon...
We offer our complete backing to @Diakhaby_5
