At Galatasaray, following Victor Osimhen, Rafael Leao also suffered an injury shock. The Portuguese star, who put his team ahead in the Amedspor match, was injured at the very start of the second half and could not continue playing. While it was claimed that the injury, stated not to be caused by a blow, originated from the pitch at RAMS Park, the yellow-and-red fans experienced great concern.
In the 11th week of the Trendyol Süper Lig, Galatasaray hosted Amedspor at home. Rafael Leao, who put his team ahead with a goal he scored at the very beginning of the match, could not complete the match due to the injury he suffered in the second half. In the yellow-and-red team, another star getting injured after Victor Osimhen hurt morale.
HE SCORED THE GOAL, GOT INJURED IN THE SECOND HALF
Rafael Leao, who started the match in the first XI, took the stage in the opening minutes and put Galatasaray 1-0 ahead. The Portuguese star, who completed the first half on the pitch, suffered an injury after the start of the second half. Leao, who headed toward the bench in the 47th minute, stated that he could not continue playing.
Head coach Okan Buruk made a forced substitution after the injury. Young striker Deniz Gül came on in the 50th minute in place of Rafael Leao.
NOT DUE TO A BLOW! EYES TURNED TO THE PITCH AGAIN
It was stated that Rafael Leao's injury was not due to a blow he received from an opposing player, while eyes once again turned to the RAMS Park pitch. It was suggested that the Portuguese player's problem may have been caused by the field conditions.
After the injury, the RAMS Park pitch became a topic of debate again, while no official statement has yet been made regarding a direct link between Leao's injury and the field conditions.
LEAO ALSO GOT INJURED AFTER OSIMHEN
After Victor Osimhen was previously injured at Galatasaray, Rafael Leao also having to leave the game increased concerns in the yellow-and-red team. The injuries of two important names in the attacking line also raised questions regarding the technical staff's plans for upcoming matches.
MEDICAL REPORT AWAITED
The seriousness of Rafael Leao's injury has not yet become clear. The Portuguese player's health condition is expected to be clarified after detailed examinations. How long Leao will be away from the pitch will be determined according to the results of the examinations.
