The German Real Madrid player suffered a serious blow when he scored the equalizer against Shakhtar
Real Madrid’s German player Antonio Rüdiger suffered a heavy blow on Tuesday in the match between the Whites and Shakhtar in the Champions League group stage.
In the discount of the second part, he threw himself with everything to score the goal that gave the tie to Ancelotti’s team, but he could not celebrate the goal that gave in extremis the classification for the round of 16 because he began to bleed profusely.
Going to finish off, he collided abruptly with the goalkeeper of the Ukrainian team, Anatoli Trubin, and left with his face and shirt completely bloodied.
The first tests carried out by the Real Madrid medical services rule out that the defender suffers any fracture in the upper part of the head or in the eyebrow.
It will now be studied whether Rüdiger can remain at Ancelotti’s disposal in the next few games, playing with a mask that protects the damaged area, although it seems that the Clásico this coming Sunday is completely discarded.
Real Madrid equalized thanks to his goal in injury time after the Ukrainians went ahead at the start of the second half. The rescued point serves to seal their mathematical classification for the round of 16 with two games to play.
