Almost his  entire mouth was destroyed.'It's  too early to talk of recovery, we must wait and see.'The injury happened as Mr Aparicio was  attempting the faena, a series of passes in which he uses his cape and  sword before delivering the death blow - or estocada.It is not known what has happened to the  bull.<img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2010/05/22/article-1280469-09B2DAEA000005DC-399_634x286.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Mr Aparicio, from Seville, comes from  a well-known family of matadors. He is in a grave condition in  hospital.Evening  bullfights are watched by sell-out crowds at the 25,000 seat Las Ventas  bullring and are broadcast live on cable television.Six bulls are killed in each bullfight.source - <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1280469/Matador-escapes-death-skin-teeth-horrific-goring-Madrid-bullfight.html" target="_blank">www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1280469/Matador-escapes-death-skin-teeth-horrific-goring-Madrid-bullfight.html</a></blockquote>
