The attacker left the yard with pain in his left leg. Then he had ice treatment on his thigh.

At the end of the game, DT Gian Piero Gasperin referred to the footballer’s injury, after the initial dialogue he had with the player and waited for the medical examinations.

“I talked to him, it doesn’t seem exaggerated. It’s more of a contracture on the quadriceps side, he contracted, so he was afraid that he caused even more damage. Too bad, because he had managed to start several times. And give speed in “Casemiro area. He had managed to jump it, it could have been a good solution”, said the coach.
