On Saturday night, the Eagles had a great match against Santos, in which they ended up winning 3-0 to climb to second place in the general standings.

But unfortunately, not everything was happiness, as during that match three players were injured, adding to the four who were already dealing with some type of discomfort or injury.

Sebastián Cáceres was the first to be injured before the match against Santos; the Uruguayan player was set to start, but just before the game began, he experienced discomfort in the sole of his foot, so they decided not to risk him and left him out of the lineup.

During the match against Santos, right at the 27th minute, Allan Saint-Maximin requested to be substituted due to an injury, which occurred minutes earlier when Haret Ortega, a Santos defender, intentionally kneed him even though he didn't have the ball.

Just a few minutes later, José Zúñiga also requested to be substituted after feeling discomfort in his right knee.

To this, we must add Dagoberto Espinoza who suffered a ligament rupture, Henry Martín with constant injury problems throughout this year, Jonathan dos Santos, a similar case, though less severe, and Álvaro Fidalgo with a knee injury that has prevented him from being at one hundred percent.

When will they return?

The good news is that except for Dagoberto, everyone is expected to be back next week when they face Cruz Azul in matchday 13. This is considering there will be a FIFA Date, so this match will be in two weeks.

Saint-Maximin only suffered a blow, José Zúñiga has a muscular issue, and Sebastián Cáceres a minor foot injury, so they will all be ready for the next match.

Henry Martín and Jonathan dos Santos are already in the final stage of their recovery, and Álvaro Fidalgo rested more as a precaution since the intention is for him to be at one hundred percent for the end of the regular phase and the playoffs.
