OFFICIAL: Roberto Firmino, safe drop for the Liverpool-Barça

All the world is slope of the medical part of Mohamed Salah, but what already knows sure to 100% is that the one who will not form part of the alignment of the Liverpool against the FC Barcelona is Roberto Firmino. The Brazilian forward will not be present in the turn of semifinals of the Champions League 2018-19, to the not to have recovered to time of the injury that suffers.

Like this it has informed it the Liverpool through a communiqué issued in the social networks, after the agónica victory against the Newcastle (2-3). "Roberto Firmino will lose the party of the Tuesday against the Barcelona in Anfield, but could return for the last party of the Premier in Liverpool against Wolverhampton Wanderers", begins the communiqué in question.

"The 'nine' was absent of the team in the victory on the Newcastle United because of the muscular injury that suffered in the training the past week. During his back press conference to the party in the St James Park, Jürgen Klopp confirmed that Firmino will not be apt for the second turn of the semifinal of the League of Champions", sentence.

In this sense, remains clear the absence of Roberto Firmino in the leading 'network' to look for the traced back against the Barça in the turn of the semifinals. A grave setback for the ones of Klopp, that could lose also to Salah for the party if it confirms the drop of the Egyptian. We remember that Salah had to abandon the field of the Newcastle in stretcher and between tears, by what his presence the Tuesday seems complicated.

Play the one who play, the Liverpool will treat to convert Anfield in a pot to pressure and shut to the FC Barcelona in his own field during the ninety minutes. The 'reds' will have to Sadio Mané like main reference in attack, without explaining to other dangerous players like Origi, Chamberlain or Shaqiri, those who also could carry danger to the goal of Ter Stegen.

It results odd, this yes, that the Liverpool have issued a communiqué to inform on the drop of Firmino of face to the party against the Barça, and that have not kept a secret it to play to the distraction with the culés. It seems that in Anfield have the clear ideas and go forward. Without Firmino, will follow trusting the options of traced back... And the Barça will have to walk with eye.

Roberto Firmino will miss Tuesday's game against Barcelona.
