Atletico Madrid's feat achieved at Porto will be on the mind of all Atletico Madrid fans. Nevertheless, qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League was overshadowed by two injuries.
Luis Suarez was, without doubt, Atletico's biggest loss. According to 'Marca', the Uruguayan's muscle problems will keep him out for around 10 days, so he will be unable to play in the derby against Real Madrid.
After getting injured, the attacker had to leave the field of play in the first half in tears. If this time of absence is confirmed, he may not be unavailable until the game away to Granada on 22nd December.
For now, there is no medical report on Luis Suarez, unlike what happened with Sime Vrsaljko. After a brain scan, it was determined that he has suffered a fracture of his "zygomatic arch".
