Not even African Spider-Man could save you from conceding against Yellow Submarine

These days are colourful in Spain, as they traditionally celebrate Carnival across the country in the last days before the commencement of Lent. This celebration is seen by those of the Christian faith as the last chance to indulge before the start of Lent.

The festivities include from-dusk-till-dawn parties and parades. That atmosphere spilled into La Liga action in Victoria, too, where Alaves hosted Villarreal.

Ahead of the match, Spider-Man turned up in his Alaves tracksuit to play a part for the Basque side as they looked to bounce back from last weekend’s defeat to Barcelona. It was goalkeeper Jesus Owono, who only recently returned from the Africa Cup of Nations, where he was in excellent form for Equatorial Guinea.

Unfortunately for Alaves, Spider-Man couldn’t inspire him to victory against Villarreal, as the match finished 1-1. Owono played no part on the day, as Antonio Sivera retained his place in goals for the Basque outfit.
