Halilovic throws a stop when taken off in first half of Barça B defeat
Alen Halilovic was not a happy man. The Croatian midfielder was taken off in the 27th minute of Barça B's 3-1 defeat against Alcorcon.
He wasn't taken off because he was injured, or because he was playing badly, but because goalkeeper Ortola had been sent off and Suarez needed to come on to replace him.
Halilovic did not take Jordi Vinyals' decision well and showed his unhappiness.
While he was still on the pitch, teammate Alejandro Grimaldo tried to calm him down with little success. Then, as he left the pitch, Halilovic didn't hide his disgust as he made his way towards the dressing room.
It's not the first time he's been annoyed, either. When Eusebio was in charge of Bar'ça B, in a match against Zaragoza, Halilovic was similarly put out at being substituted.
While it's normal that a player gets angry when taken off in the first half, it's worth remembering that this is a team sport and that the manager's decision should be respected.
