In-form Real Madrid star playing through shoulder pain: report

Brahim Diaz celebrates with Arda Guler after scoring a wonder goal. — AFPReal Madrid in-form star Brahim Diaz has been playing with shoulder pain for a long time that could possibly require surgery, reported El Chiringuito TV on Thursday.Brahim, 24, dislocated his shoulder earlier this season which forced him to miss one match. However, the Spaniard soon returned to action and started playing for Los Blancos as the team was undergoing an injury crisis. The Spaniard was used as a substitute during the Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday and scored one of the most memorable goals of all time as he outpaced Jan Oblak and sent the ball into the empty net. However, as per the report, the condition of the 24-year-old’s shoulder is really bad and the doctors have already advised him to get operated.But, Brahim is willing to wait till the season ends so he can recover from the surgery without missing any matches. The Spaniard is unaware of Madrid’s attacking options and knows the absence of any attacker can cast serious problems for head coach Carlo Ancelotti. Brahim filled in perfectly to cover for Vinicius Junior, who is having a tough season in terms of fitness, and stepped up alongside Rodrygo.However, as Vini has returned from the injury and Turk prodigy Arda Guler is also fit to play and start matches, it will be interesting to see how if Brahim’s place in the playing XI will be affected or not.It must be noted that Real Madrid had a disappointing start as they conceded an early goal from Mario Hermoso, a former academy player, in the sixth minute. However, Los Blancos responded quickly with a goal from in-form Antonio Rudiger in the 20th minute.The Whites soon took the lead in the 29th minute as Ferland Mendy put the ball in the back of the net with an exquisite finish, but the game soon equalled in the 37th minute with Antoine Griezmann scoring a brilliant goal with his weak foot.The game went evenly, both teams were struggling to score in the second half but Kepa Arrizabalaga’s mistake in the 78th minute put Real Madrid behind once again.With just 12 minutes remaining, it seemed like a done deal for Diego Simeone’s men, who are excellent at defending narrow leads, but Dani Carvajal scored just seven minutes before the final whistle.The game went to extra time where the Whites’ on-loan striker Joselu scored in the 116th minute, ending all of Atletico’s hopes. The lead was doubled by Brahim, who ended Real Madrid’s dream night on a high note. Comments Submit مضمون کا ماخذ:raspadinha resultados
