Another bad news for Argentina national team who drives Lionel Scalloni. 40 days before the World Cup, injuries occur. The first was Giovanni Musso, who had to undergo surgery for a fractured cheekbone. After Leone Messi, who felt annoyed against Benfica and missed the last two games. The sequence is followed paolo dibala, with an injury that has not yet been diagnosed or recovered. And now added Angelo Di Mariathat this Tuesday asked for a change in the 23rd minute of the first half that Juventus will play against Maccabi Haifa, in Israel, for the Champions League.

What happened? With the score of 1-0 for the local team, Fideo Di María accelerated to fetch a ball and even left the French defender behind Dylan Batubinsika. However, he suddenly had to stop his march due to a puncture in the back of his right thigh.

Rosario immediately took the diseased part and, visibly saddened, asked for the change. His place was taken by the Pole Arkadiusz Milikwhile spaghetti He began to be treated by Juventus doctors.

It is Di María’s third injury since joining “Juve” last August. A little over a month from the start of the World Cup in Qatar 2022, we will have to wait for medical examinations to see the extent of the Argentine striker’s disturbance.

A troubling list

Forty days before the start of the World Cup in Qatar, there is concern about injuries appearing in Argentine players. To the discouraging panorama raised by José Mourinho, Roma manager, on Dybala, is added a new absence of Messi at Paris Saint Germain. Also, goalkeeper Juan Musso is recovering from a broken cheekbone. And now Di María joins

Messi, for the second consecutive match, was excluded from the PSG squad. Having missed the match against Reims, for Ligue 1 last Saturday, he will not be available when the Parisian team host Benfica on Tuesday, for the fourth round of Group H of the Champions League.

He reported “a small discomfort in his right calf”, according to the brief medical report provided yesterday morning by the French team. The contracture, as confirmed Clarione, which took place last Wednesday during the trip to Benfica, which led to the request for a Flea change for DT Cristophe Galtier. Very early yesterday morning, the Parisian media reported that Messi had been absent from training. He actually was in the gym while his teammates were training on the pitch.

Since the team returned from Lisbon, Messi has not trained normally, since he was previously absent from the trip to Reims (where, what a coincidence, he was unable to convert for the first time this season) and is now excluded from the paycheck. to receive Benfica. The recovery time “is too short for tomorrow’s match against Benfica”, the club’s statement completes.

As I had expected Clarione Last Friday Leo was subjected to tests and does not present any type of injury, but the advice is to take care of yourself, stay at home and avoid unnecessary physical wear, taking into account the approaching calendar for the Parisian team. And not to mention if you add what comes from November 20, the start of the World Cup.

Coach Galtier therefore prefers not to put the winger who scored the most minutes at the start of this season at risk. Messi has played in the Super Cup, nine games in Ligue 1 and three in the Champions League, as well as in many of those he was replaced before the end.

Galtier, in the usual press conference he holds before the matches, clarified: “We will see the evolution over the course of the week, but it is very likely that Leo will be present against Olympique de Marseille”.

“We thought he could participate but it’s still limited. He feels a lot better, he’s very confident but still carries that uncomfortable feeling. And before a match of this importance, he preferred to take care of himself “, he added. In the meantime, Nicolás Otamendi confirmed that he had called Messi to find out how he was doing and that there were no worries ahead of the World Cup. .

Dybala and an uncertain diagnosis

On the other hand, the passing of the hours seems to have complicated Dybala’s prospects. What was an optimistic expectation yesterday morning has become a red alert in the afternoon. Is that, in Italy, they assure that Cordovan’s left hamstring injury could take between four and eight weeks to heal.

How does it affect? Just do quick accounts: on 21 October the national team coach Lionel Scaloni must deliver the preliminary list of squads for Qatar 2022 and on 14 November, eight days before the debut against Saudi Arabia in Doha, the 26 designated for the biggest football event.

The news came after yesterday’s training with Roma, an ultrasound was performed to automatically explore the affected area after converting the penalty that gave him the victory over Lecce, for Serie A. The injury there is, but one hundred percent confirmation cannot be given yet because the doctors of the club (and the national team) have advised to perform an MRI to find out the true extent.

It is the study that was postponed yesterday, because the left hamstring still had a lot of inflammation and a strong hematoma, product of the fibrillar rupture. It takes between 24 and 48 hours for the affected sector to deflate and to carry out the most in-depth study to confirm what the real downtime will be and clarify the future.
