Larkin was hospitalized on Monday due to appendicitis. After 2 days, the operation was abandoned at the last moment. He was not in a position to play psychologically. Beaubois also suffered an ankle injury. He wanted to play due to the importance of the match, but the injury recurred in the first half. “At the moment, I don’t know their situation. Micic has a problem in his knees, we expect him to play, but he can’t come to the right. Larkin’s appendicitis incident came as a surprise to us. As such, abnormal load was placed on Clyburn and Bryant. Naturally, they couldn’t handle it either. Play-off” “We are not far from the club. We have 4 home matches ahead of us. We asked the federation to postpone the league match, but they refused. Frankly, I don’t know what kind of squad we will play at the moment.”
