Ilkay Gundogan burst into tears due to injury during the German national team match
In the friendly match between Germany and France, Ilkay Gundogan was injured and had to leave the field in tears.
The German team won a friendly match with the French team and this was also the team’s first match after the dismissal of coach Hansi Flick. However, the German’s victory was not complete when midfielder Gundogan was injured after the match.
In the 25th minute, the Barca midfielder was injured. Gundogan sat down on the field and appeared to be in pain. This player then burst into tears on the way off the field. The German team then had to send Pascal Gross to replace Gundogan.
Gundogan left the field in tears at the German national team match
It is known that Gundogan suffered a back injury. Germany’s interim coach, Rudi Voller, confirmed that the midfielder has “a back injury” but luckily there are no broken bones. Gundogan is also the only injury case of the German national team in this gathering.
However, the midfielder will still need more time to thoroughly examine his back injury. Gundogan will have his physical condition determined by the German national team’s medical team before returning to Barcelona.
Gundogan’s injury is very bad news for Barcelona right now. Coach Xavi’s team did not have a good start in La Liga and Gundogan’s injury could affect Coach Xavi’s plans.
Ilkay Gundogan landed at Barca from Man City on a free transfer this summer. The German player is expected to quickly integrate into Coach Xavi’s playing style and lead Barca to the title this season.
