Atlético-MG x Athletico-PR will be held this Tuesday, the 23rd, at Mineirão, and Fernandinho will not be able to be on the field; see injury details
Atlético-MG x Athletico-PR will be held this Tuesday, the 23rd, and the confrontation between the two teams will not have the presence of Fernandinho. The midfielder was injured in recent days and did not travel with the team to Belo Horizonte. In this way, the midfielder will not find the Mineirãoa stage that brings back bad memories of international competitions.
Last Sunday, the 21st, through social media and before the match between Atlético-MG vs Athletico-PR, Hurricane announced a muscle injury to Fernandinho. The defensive midfielder participated in the defeat of Hurricane against Red Bull Bragantino in the Brasileirão, but he could not stand the sequence of games and felt the posterior muscle of his right thigh. The trend is that he no longer enters the field this month of May.
The Athletico-PR midfielder came from five consecutive games playing for 90 minutes, but the sequence of matches was merciless with the musculature of the star. Therefore, Fernandinho will be a serious embezzlement for Hurricane, who will also not have him in the decision for a place in the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil. The team will face Botafogo, at the Nilton Santos stadium, on the 31st of May.
Therefore, the tendency is for Fernandinho to give space to Hugo Moura. The defensive midfielder is the immediate substitute for Athletico-PR’s main player. The tendency is for Paulo Turra to enter with a slightly more defensive midfield to try to stop an inspired Atlético-MG. It is worth noting that Galo has won the last four matches and is looking for another victory in the Libertadores.
