The national midfielder limped off the pitch. He only played 68 minutes in the game against Fluminense.
The bad news continues to affect the Chilean team. Arturo Vidal He was injured in the draw between Athletico Paranaense and Fluminense, at the Brasileirao, setting off alarm bells for La Roja.
The national midfielder was one of his team’s strengths. He debuted and put in an outstanding performance. However, In one of the best moments of his cast, the San Joaquín native left the field after presenting with physical problems.
Vidal he was replaced in the 68th minute by Hugo Moura . In the play before the substitution, the midfielder went to challenge a Fluo defender for the ball and ended up being visibly affected. Immediately, the Chilean took his right thigh and knee. The signs of pain were notorious.
The situation has reached such a magnitude, that the match judge himself signaled to the Paranaense bench to make the substitution. Vidal, in the same vein, responded to signs directed at coach Wesley Carvalho.
The midfielder limped off the pitch, in an action that complicates Eduardo Berizzo. A few days ago the national team coach delivered the pay slip for the double date of the first of the 2030 World Cup qualifiers. In this sense, Vidal’s injury comes less than two weeks after those encounters. La Roja will face Uruguay and Colombia on September 8 and 12 respectively, and their presence is unknown.
The midfield is untouchable for the trans-Andean coach. In fact, he didn’t abandon his project even when the Chilean didn’t have continuity. Today, their reality is different, because in the furacao He regained confidence and regularity. He became essential in the eleventh round and achieved an exceptional performance. Therefore, the question of the seriousness of his ill-being arises with acuity.
Added to this is the terrible situation that Eugenio Mena experienced in the match against Ñublense. The Catholic University winger suffered a serious injury to the tibia and fibula of his left leg. This action obviously marginalized him from Berizzo’s appeal.
agonal tie
The Paranaense had a complex rival, Fluminense, quarter-finalists of the Copa Libertadores. They started on the right foot as Cacá opened the scoring in the 13th minute. It was an ideal scenario, but the furacao He had one element less left. Vinicius Kaue was sent off at 22′ after a violent foul, which complicated Vidal’s team. The midfielder, meanwhile, was reprimanded with eight minutes remaining in the first half.
With ten players they tried to hold the result, but they failed. Vidal left the field and the Paranaense noticed him. Minutes later, the flu discounts arrived after a constant siege. Guga (76′) and Neto (87′) gave the visitors the advantage.
However, the duel would be a carousel of emotions. Vitor Roque, from the third minute of remission, scored and sealed the agonizing final parity, triggering the brouhaha in the Chilean team.
