The twitter account that posted the video seems to think it was a foul

"Here we can see a very clear foul: Fermín's face landed squarely on the sole of poor Musso's foot.

(Turpin, that Frenchman, interprets the leg extension as accidental because he felt like it—no red card, no yellow, no penalty, haha)"

        Yes of course there is physical contact but you don't get a free pass (Other Football) - Kangol Canary, Apr 15, 17:27:34
        
        The fact that even *Barcelona* didn't appeal for a foul, not even monetarily (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Apr 15, 17:30:03
        
        Maybe they were more worried about him being ok? (Other Football) - Kangol Canary, Apr 15, 18:23:57
        
        *momentarily*, rather (n/m) (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Apr 15, 17:30:19

        His foot isn’t high, he’s in the process of making a save (and gets the ball) (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Apr 15, 20:19:55
