The young bullfighter Marco Pérez (Salamanca, 2007) has suffered a wound with two trajectories in his right thigh when he went in to kill his first bull in the bullfight that closed the Santander Fair yesterday. The medical report indicates that he was treated for a goring “on the right thigh in two directions, one towards the hip and the other up to the middle third of the thigh, affecting the adductor muscle and reaching the area of ​​the rectus femoris of the thigh/quadriceps”, with a reserved prognosis. “He was transferred to the Mompía hospital.

With the ‘no tickets’ sign at the box office, Morante de la Puebla thrilled the crowds as he fought to replace the gored bullfighter, but failed with the sword, and Aarón Palacio cut off an ear after an outstanding performance.

Marco Pérez received his first bull on his knees at the bullpen gate. After a second long change in the third, the man from Salamanca began the task of muleta also kneeling, for statues, in a declaration of intentions that impacted the public. With absolute dedication, the bullfighter from Salamanca built the most emotional passages on his right hand, with which he managed to link the deepest rounds. He went in to kill with righteousness and was caught by the piton and gored on the right thigh. The public asked for both ears, but the president only granted one.

Juan Pedro Domecq’s soap bull that opened the celebration, of poor pitons, had little delivery, and Morante de la Puebla could barely stand out in the initial verónicas. After a removal by chicuelinas, the animal harshly resorted to the crutch, which prevented the show.

Morante did not delay with the fourth of the afternoon that barely offered any options. Very empty inside, it faded from the first bars, and turned Morante de la Puebla’s work into a sterile attempt. He was barely able to leave a few details of his personal concept, and abbreviated with an effective thrust.

Morante received the sixth with three lanterns on foot together and a subsequent galleo by chicuelinas. The square was a clamor when the Sevillian began the muleta task sitting in the stirrup against a classy opponent with whom the bullfighter seemed inspired. The failure in supreme luck blotted out what would have been an incontestable triumph.

Aarón Palacio received his first one with bluffs, without quality or dedication, and the bullfighter’s work did not come to fruition due to the lack of collaboration from the bull. In the second of his lot, Palacio rocked the cape a la verónica, and showed off in a galleo for graceful chicuelinas and a tight-fitting skirt for gaoneras.

The bullfighting and intelligence of the new Aragonese matador created a task of great interest in which the muletazos with the right hand stood out. After an epilogue due to tight statuary and a detached thrust, the presidency only granted one of the two ears requested by the tender, which caused a quarrel from the respectable, and the Palace was forced to walk around the ring twice.
