Several surprises occurred in the first eight commitments of the day 1, like the defeat of Chelsea in front of the Dinamo Zagreb (1-0) or the goleada to domicile of the Shakhtar Donetsk to the RB Leipzig (1-4).

To the 25' minutes had to be substituted by Eden Hazard, abandoning the Celtic Park and leaving a big uncertainty.

Although the current champion of Europe carried a comfortable victory home (0-3), the drop of the French forward is significant and the medical bodies of the club are analysing the scope of the same to determine what time will be separated of the terrains of game. With this on the table, a new information of the journalist Mario Cortegana aims that there is some optimism in Valdebebas with the situation.

The wisest is to expect to the proofs before taking out conclusions that can be precipitated", aimed in a publication in the social network 'Twitter'. The club will expect the result of the examinations of this Wednesday to issue an official communiqué desvelando the gravity of the injury and the time of drop of the captain.
