Girona confirm Portu's injury after Nacho's terrifying tackle

There is already information about the injury of Portu, the player who had to leave the Girona-Real Madrid match on a stretcher after a hard tackle by Nacho in the dying stages of the game. The Girona club reported a bone oedema in the tibial malleolus of the right ankle and a rupture of the left gluteal aponeurosis.

The Girona winger, who left the field of play with visible signs of pain, does not have a serious injury, although he is still barely able to walk and is out of the squad for the next game against Cadiz.

Girona's medical staff made it clear that his recovery will determine his availability, but the good news has been welcomed with open arms within the Catalan club.

It is worth remembering that the Real Madrid centre-back apologised for this harsh tackle on the Girona player, making it clear that his intention was never to hurt anyone.
