Alert! Sporting star limps off injured after draw with Juventus | OneFootball

Alarm bells are ringing in Alvalade: Francisco Trincão reportedly complained of discomfort after the Juventus - Sporting match, last Tuesday, November 4, which the green and whites ended up drawing in Italy. The player did not hide what he was feeling.

It was still during the first half of the match in Italy, already in stoppage time, that the Portuguese international could be seen in pain on the pitch. The pain in question appears to be coming from the lower back area, but there are no further updates yet regarding his physical condition.

The reality is that, despite the pain, Trincão ended up playing the full 90 minutes of the Champions League match, but it was clear he was in pain by the end of the game, at a time when injuries seem to keep knocking on Sporting's door.

This season, wearing the Sporting shirt, Francisco Trincão - valued at 35 million euros - has made 16 appearances. At the start of this season, the Portuguese international forward started almost every official match - except for the League Cup -, already recording five goals and three assists.

The green and white team will be back on the pitch next Saturday, November 8, against Santa Clara, in a match for the 11th round of Liga Portugal Betclic. The game against the team led by Vasco Matos will be played at 8:30 pm at Estádio de São Miguel, in Ponta Delgada.
