Millán and Jemmes go off injured, Fluminense to reassess | OneFootball

Fluminense may have two absences for the upcoming Brazilian Championship matches. Defenders Julián Millán and Jemmes left Friday’s 1-1 draw with Bragantino due to physical issues and will undergo tests to determine whether they suffered injuries and how serious each case is.

Millán was substituted in the first half after feeling pain in his right thigh. Freytes came on in his place. Jemmes, meanwhile, was replaced by Ignácio at halftime, also because of a physical problem.

The forced substitutions changed Luis Zubeldía’s game plan during the match. After the game, the coach lamented the absences.

— Early Brasileirão setbacks. That limited us from making other changes. That’s within the realm of possibility.

In the mixed zone, Ignácio said he does not know exactly what happened to his teammates, but confirmed that both left the field because of physical issues.

— We had two teammates who left the match because of injury. The first was Millán, and I don’t know exactly what happened with Jemmes. I think he felt some discomfort. The medical department can explain it better, but that was the reason.

Fluminense’s medical department will reassess both defenders before deciding whether they will be fit to play in the team’s next matches.
