The sporting director of
Barcelona, Andoni Zubizarreta on Wednesday expressed regret for the injury of the
goalkeeper, Victor Valdes, yesterday during the game against the Spanish in
front of South Africa, stressing that "the news is not good at all."
Zubizarreta Said “goalkeeper
muscle injury is rare, but it may occur due to excessive shocks. I have been in
the past for similar injury and this makes you confused a little bit, this is
bad news, but we have Pinto and Auer and Massip, we will play one of them and
we will continue to deliver good results. We wish to recover our goalkeeper
first, and then to be in the best conditions to play. "
FC Barcelona has announced today
the absence of Valdes sidelined for six weeks, after being yesterday to tear
injury in the right leg (calf muscle).
On the timing of the injury and
it came a month before the holiday birthdays, Zubizarreta pointed
"Injuries do not come never in a timely manner, but this is our destiny,
we do not choose its time, life passes and now we prepare to face Granada
Saturday, we will play eleven players, and this is the most important"
.
And the suffering of Barcelona
leader in La Liga after Valdes injury increased, who joins a long list of key
injured players, most notably Argentine star Lionel Messi, and midfielders Cesc
Fabregas and Xavi Hernandez, and full-back Jordi Alba, and central defender
Gerard Pique, and winger Cristian Tello.
And Spain had fought yesterday's
second friendly matches in Africa and lost the match against South Africa at
Soccer City in Johannesburg 1-0, and won the title on Equatorial Guinea with
two goals to one.
