Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Denmark’s Midtjylland, which left them as the lonely leader of Group D of the Champions League, was marred by a new injury to a central defender, which leaves Jürgen Klopp in check because he remains without defenders before the annoyances of their players
The Brazilian, who is normally a brand midfielder, played as a center back alongside Joseph Gomez, to replace the injured Virgil Van Dijk. And given his injury, now there are no top-level centrals left to play for Liverpool.
It should be remembered that in addition to Van Dijk, Joel Matip is also injured. And he had just sold Dejan Lovren to Russian Zenit, while he traded the young Ki-Jana Hoever to Wolverhampton, so for this season he no longer has more centrals.
“It’s the last thing we needed!” Klopp said at the end of the match, in the face of Fabinho’s injury. “He told me he felt something in his hamstring and that’s not good. We will wait for the exams to find out more about his injury ”, lamented the German coach.
Now Liverpool only has Joseph Gomez and Rhys Williams, who just entered this Tuesday for Fabinho, and who is a young squad of only 19 years old and without much experience to play the Premier League and the Champions League.
