The bad fortune is cebando with the FC Barcelona this season 2020-21, and no only in shape of individual errors that have caused the loss of points in LaLiga and of titles like the Supercopa of Spain, but also in shape of injuries like which suffered this Sunday Ronald Araújo on the lawn of Benito Villamarín, when hardly they had passed the ten first minutes of the meeting.
When trying take out a balloon of committed zones, Ronald Araújo went to the floor and bent the ankle, showing visibly sore just afterwards. The Uruguayan remained tended on the lawn and was attended by the medical services, but of way to the bench not even was able to support the foot with soltura. It will be necessary to expect to the medical proofs for esclarecer the scope of the injury.
Very bad news, in any case, for a FC Barcelona that it could lose to Araújo during an indefinite time by sprain in the left ankle, just when it approaches the most decisive stretch of the season 2020-21 so much in Glass of the King as in Champions League, with the eliminatory of eighth of final in front of Paris Saint-Germain whose gone will play next week.

It will play the Barça with two left-handed head offices?
Setback very important for Ronald Koeman, that remains with Umtiti, Lenglet and Mingueza like head offices when being Gerard Hammered also lesionado. For I satisfy, Sergi Roberto is lesionado in the right side and Sergiño Dest carries days dragging annoyances, what is used to to situate to Mingueza like side of urgency in his last apparitions. If the canterano plays in this position in front of the Seville, Koeman will see forced to do something that never has liked him: play with two left-handed head offices, Umtiti and Lenglet.
