Celebrity Ibiza: In Depth

Celebrityhood is a funny old game, especially when you're only famous for being famous. Our Spotlight news section is packed with household names whose appearance in a foreign land wouldn't turn a head, so today we present an in depth report on recent Ibiza visitor Javi Casquero, some of which is true.

 

Casquero's a central defender with Spanish 1^st Division football team Getafe. He will forever be remembered for an incident in the last minute of the derby game with Real Madrid with the score at 2 – 2.

 

The stage was set for drama. Casquero scythed through the penalty area on the left side, Madrid's Brazilian defender Pepe (€30 million) 'he go crazy,' brought Casquero down, kicked him a couple of times, punched Getafe's Albín, insulted the fourth referee on his way off and got a 10 match ban.

 

Meanwhile, Casquero, on hearing that he'd done enough writhing around to win a penalty, interrupted the priest giving him the last rites and got up Lazarus like to take the match winning shot.

 

Except that he missed it. Our fan-cam captures that moment of mixed emotions and some unsporting booing and whistling from the home crowd. In true 'Question of Sport' manner – what happened next?

 

Yes, Los Galacticos went straight up to the other end and scored to win the game 3 – 2 and pocket the 3 points in a bid to finish second in La Liga.
