Calendar of FC Barcelona

The central and the side of the FC Barcelona, Samuel Umtiti and Lucas Digne, had to be attended by the medical services during the first-half of the Juventus-Barça of this Wednesday in the Allianz Stadium, after a fortísimo crash to the half hour of meeting when they tried to defend a confined offensive of Douglas by the left band.

They measured badly and, after clearing the danger, finish bumping between them of haphazard way. Both French players remained tended on the lawn some minutes, and when Samuel Umtiti raised could him see limping and renqueante, thing that forced to Ernesto Valverde to command to heat to Thomas Vermaelen in the zone of benches.

And it is that the FC Barcelona has to Umtiti low cottons and can not allow his loss of face to the next day of LaLiga Santander 2017-18 against Valencia, taking into account the injury of Mascherano and that another of the central usually title, Gerard Hammered, will not be able to contest the commitment of Mestalla because of the inopportune yellow card that saw in Butarque.

Umtiti And Digne recovered without problems

Fortunately for the interests of the FC Barcelona, Umtiti recovered with the step of the minutes and could continue on the lawn without problems, descartando then Valverde take him out of the terrain of game ahead of time. Without importance fright, in principle, for a Barça that played a first-half balanced in Turín, although without creating too many occasions of goal.

Regarding Lucas Digne, also could continue without problems and played to a good level, especially to defensive level, without giving too many grantings to the rival attackers and leaving clear that it can be a reliable substitute of Jordi Alba in punctual moments.
