The defender had pain in his injured right knee and was replaced by Yerry Mina

Gerard Pique, Barcelona centre-back, wanted to put his body on the line and play against Valencia in the Copa del Rey semi-final despite having a knee ligament problem.

Pique lasted 82 minutes, when he was replaced by Yerry Mina, who made his Barcelona debut. Pique did his job. He was excellent at the back and cleared up various attacks, throwing himself around and scaring Barcelona fans. 

Once taken off, Pique sat down on the bench and clearly had pain in his right knee. Everything indicates he will be out on Sunday against Getafe at Cmap Nou, with Samuel Umtiti also suspended. Valverde will have to look for alternatives.
