Esteban Andrada suspended for 13 games after punching Huesca defender Jorge Pulido

Esteban Andrada completely lost his temper in the match against Huesca in Spain's second division. The Argentine goalkeeper landed a punch to the face of opponent Jorge Pulido. Andrada has been suspended for 13 matches and will miss the rest of the season.

Andrada, on loan from Monterrey, Mexico, is deeply remorseful.

"The truth is that I am very, very sorry for what happened. It is not good for the club, not good for the fans and especially not good for me as a professional player," Andrada said.

Andrada was one of three players who received red cards in connection with the brawl. The other two players face shorter suspensions.

The scandal received widespread attention in Spain.
