The Spanish genius suffered one after another, and Real Madrid and Barcelona suffered heavy losses, and two factors became the culprit
In this round of European preliminaries, Spanish teenager Gavi suffered a serious injury. According to official Barcelona sources, Gavi has a complete rupture of the cruciate ligament in his right knee and is also accompanied by a meniscus injury. An injury like this is a fatal blow for a professional footballer.
According to Le Monde Sport, after Gavi's injury, the atmosphere in the dressing room of the Spanish team was very heavy, no one spoke, only Gavi screamed and cried. The team doctor tried to tell Gavi about his injury, but Gavi just repeated loudly: "This can't be, it's impossible, I'm going to play!" Everyone was saddened by what happened to Gavi, especially the other youngsters in the squad, who were still in shock, unable to believe that such a thing could happen to their close companions.
It is reported that Gavi will undergo surgery in the next few days, after which he will enter a long recovery period. He can resume normal walking in the first month after surgery, and in the fourth month he will resume basic exercise training and start running. By the eighth month, he began to resume normal training with the ball. Of course, all this is just a plan, and the actual situation will depend on how well Gavi recovers. For the next year, Gavi spent almost all of his time in a long process of rebuilding. For a 19-year-old player, this is indeed an unbearable blow.
Many of Spain's talents in recent years seem to have been linked to injuries. Barcelona's Messi successor Fati, who amazed the world when he first debuted, was originally the most likely player to succeed Messi in La Masia, but because of his young age, he suffered many major injuries and has now left Barcelona. and Pedri, the core of the midfield, also went all out to compete in the European Championship and the Olympics after a whole season, and finally suffered a major injury due to overdraft. Real Madrid is naturally not much better, and the two successive crown princes, Jesse and Asensio, have all failed to reach the heights expected due to serious injuries. Jesse was once known as Ronaldo's successor, but unfortunately he was lost to everyone because of a big injury. Asensio was also impressed before the injury, but after the injury, he could only become a substitute and now left Real Madrid.
FIFA and UEFA are to blame for the fact that so many talented players have suffered serious injuries one after another, and they have developed too frequent formats that do not take into account the physical acceptance of the players, and continue to exploit the players. On top of that, the two clubs also have an uncompromising responsibility, and in order to maintain their competitiveness and results, they also had to overuse their players, which ultimately led to the current result.
