Inter Milan Suffer Major Injury Blow During Barcelona Clash – Argentina Superstar Out At Halftime With Thigh Problem | OneFootball

Lautaro Martinez had to come off at halftime during Inter Milan’s 3-3 draw at Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final tie.

According to FCInterNews, El Toro will undergo further checks in the coming hours to understand the extent of the problem.

Simone Inzaghi’s side cannot catch a break this season.

Lautaro felt discomfort in the flexor muscles of his left thigh toward the end of the first half.

Despite staying on the pitch for a few more minutes, he had to stay in the locker room at the halftime interval.

Meanwhile, Mehdi Taremi, who took his place at the start of the second half, delivered another sub-par showing.

Therefore, Inzaghi will wait for El Toro’s test results with bated breath as Inter face an intense season finale.
