Barcelona superstar could remain on the sidelines for 2-3 weeks following last night’s injury | OneFootball

After losing to Borussia Dortmund in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, FC Barcelona returned to winning ways last night in spectacular fashion.

The Blaugranes faced Celta Vigo in their latest La Liga match, and were able to get the full three points in a roller coaster of a game which ended 4-3 in their favor.

The Catalans were down by two goals with only 30 minutes to go till the full-time whistle. But goals from Dani Olmo and Raphinha allowed them to get a comeback to remain at least 4 points ahead of Real Madrid in the league race.

Undoubtedly, this was a great game and result for Barcelona as they get closer to wrapping up the league title. However, there was one negative development from this game as well, as the striker Robert Lewandowski had to leave the pitch with a discomfort.

The Polish striker could be seen feeling his left hamstring in the 76th minute of the game, after which he looked to the bench and asked to be substituted. A few seconds later, Hansi Flick replaced him with Dani Olmo.

According to Mundo Deportivo, this physical problem suffered by the Pole can end up being problematic for Barcelona, as people close to him are now quite pessimistic about his ability to play in the upcoming Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid.

Furthermore, his participation in the UEFA Champions League semi-final against Inter Milan is also in doubt, as it is believed that he can remain on the sidelines for 2-3 weeks.

A clearer picture about his condition will be obtained on Sunday when the striker undergoes detailed tests. However, initial impressions of the injury are proving to be quite pessimistic and it remains to be seen when the Pole will again be able to play for Barcelona.
