Ruiz de Galarreta suffers shoulder dislocation, unlikely for Wednesday’s semi-final second leg

Ruiz de Galarreta suffered a shoulder dislocation at Vallecas and is almost ruled out of Wednesday’s semi-final second leg.

Ernesto Valverde named a strong side for the trip and the match finished level. According to Diario Vasco, the Athletic midfielder had the joint put back in place in the dressing room after alarming scenes at Vallecas.

The images from Vallecas were striking.

The setback leaves the midfielder facing a tight turnaround to be ready for midweek.

His chances of featuring on Wednesday are slim.
