The goal to make it 1-1 was scored by the biggest star of this national team, i.e Khvicha Kwaracchelia from Naples. In the 23rd minute, Gavi tried to receive the ball, but while doing so, he felt pain in his knee. He grabbed it, and a grimace immediately appeared on his face, indicating that something serious had happened. The Spaniard suffered a lot and did not hide his tears when leaving the pitch.
Ferran Torres scored a goal in the 55th minute to make it 2-1. Footballer Barcelona rejoicing, he showed the fans a T-shirt Gavi. It’s a beautiful gesture of solidarity with a teammate.
This injury is a big problem for Barcelona. Xavi may be furious because this is not the first injury to his main player during this qualifying break. Marc-Andre ter Stegen has already returned to the club due to severe back pain. Gavi has played in almost every match for Barcelona this season. He only missed matches against Shakhtar and Deportivo Alves, in which he was suspended for yellow cards. Despite his young age, he has already played over 100 matches for the club.
Many fans and experts pointed out that it is used above average and plays almost constantly. Now their worst-case scenarios may come true. If Gavi injured the ligaments in his knee, his break from the game will last at least several months. The first information from the Spanish media, which cites sources in the federation, indicates that the injury is very serious, but detailed examinations are still needed. We can only hope that Gavi will survive the worst.
