Camavinga injured: what is the injury and how long is he out for?
After 55 minutes, he grabbed the back of his left leg and asked to be substituted.
Eduardo Camavinga’s injury has Real Madrid fans holding their breath. Although it doesn’t appear to be serious, the warning signs are there. In the 55th minute of the 2-0 loss to Liverpool, while attempting to intercept the ball in his own half, Camavinga suddenly pulled up.
He fell to the ground, immediately signalling for medical assistance. His teammates urgently called for help, pointing to his left hamstring.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti, visibly frustrated, shook his head and looked down. This was the last thing he needed. He signaled for Dani Ceballos to get ready to substitute in, all the while continuing to shake his head in disbelief. Camavinga limped around the entire Anfield pitch before heading down the tunnel, confirming the injury’s location with a noticeable limp.
What injury does Camavinga have?
Upon reaching the sidelines, Camavinga intended to sit on the bench, but the medical team directed him straight to the locker room. Real Madrid is now anxiously awaiting the results of his initial examinations, which are scheduled for tomorrow. The club is on edge, hoping for the best but fearing the worst. It’s another blow in an already challenging season for Madrid.
Ancelotti shook his head, looking at the ground. Just what he needed, he thought. While he gestured to Ceballos to take off his bib and prepare to enter, he continued shaking his head. Camavinga walked around the entire Anfield pitch until he reached the dressing room tunnel, where he confirmed the area. He did the whole walk with a noticeable limp.
On arrival, he was going to sit on the bench, but the medical services asked him to go straight to the dressing room. Madrid are worried as they await the first examinations. It will not be until tomorrow when he will undergo tests to clarify exactly what he has.
