Tomorrow both will undergo tests. Only one blow for Thuram, who came out prematurely to make room for the Austrian. The test was positive for Calhanoglu, who recovered after the adductor problem
In Madrid with high morale and also with three starters like Pavard, Dimarco and Lautaro totally spared in the Bologna match. At the Metropolitano, however, Inzaghi will almost certainly have to deal with the injuries of Carlos Augusto and Arnautovic. Especially the second, out due to a strain on the right thigh flexors, is very worrying, also because the Austrian had stopped for a month and a half at the end of September due to a distraction to the myotendinous junction of the biceps femoris. The Brazilian winger, however, remained in the locker room at half-time after suffering a strain in his right calf. Tomorrow they will undergo checks that will clarify the extent of the injuries. In an excellent afternoon for Inzaghi, two pieces of bad news that Simone would have gladly avoided. “I’m sorry for both of them – Inzaghi told Dazn – because Marko felt a little something, let’s hope it’s nothing serious, while Carlos had his calf a little… free”. The Piacenza coach can console himself with the excellent responses obtained from Calhanoglu, back in the starting lineup after the stop before Lecce due to an adductor strain. No problem for Thuram, who was released at Dall’Ara due to a minor injury.
