Weak Arsenal take on Wolverhampton at home on Sunday night.
But the match started with unpleasant scenes.
Because in connection with a corner, Raúl Jiménez was knocked out after a heading duel with David Luiz. The Wolves forward lay motionless as medical personnel rushed to help him. After receiving care on the pitch, Jiménez was transported on a stretcher with an oxygen mask on his face.
“They skulls together”
– It’s a real collision. He (Jiménez) is completely knocked out. The players are obviously worried, it’s really unpleasant. It doesn’t look good at all. He (Luiz) is coming full speed ahead and they head together, says Viaplay commentator Claes Andersson.
Jiménez is one of Wolverhampton’s best players and has scored goals in the last two seasons. This season, there have been four goals in nine Premier League games. Fabio Silva, 18, replaced Raúl Jiménez.
Wolverhampton took the lead thanks to Pedro Neto, but Arsenal equalized when midfielder Gabriel made it 1-1. Daniel Podence set the final score at 2-1.
The Wolves thus took three valuable points. For Arsenal, the defeat meant they are still sitting 14th in the table after ten games played, and the pressure on Mikel Arteta continues to mount.
Sky Sports reported that Raúl Jiménez feels good under the circumstances and is conscious. He has been taken to the hospital for further examination.
