Lateral suffered a seemingly serious injury to his right knee and is at risk of a prolonged stoppage
Perfect in terms of the result and the display, the night of the Benfica game had only one highlight: the apparently serious injury to André Almeida. At 11 ”, the captain of the Eagles was forced to be substituted after a clash with Mané and his grimace caused great apprehension in the red host.
Lying on the stretcher, Almeida was observed by Jorge Jesús – who “threw” Gilberto into the cold field amid requests to warm up “inside” – and the coach did not like what he saw.
“Unfortunately, the symptoms are those of an injury that seems serious. Gilberto entered well, but André Almeida is very important, because tactically he is very advanced. Play well where I put it. You have to have players like him on the team. I hope it’s not serious, but … let’s see, ”said the Benfica coach.
The right-back will be re-evaluated in the next few hours and, for now, his presence in Thursday’s game against Lech for the Europa League seems quite complicated. It should be noted that both Jorge Jesus and Waldschmidt dedicated the victory in Vila do Conde to André Almeida.
