Guardiola Pessimistic About Ederson Injury After Liverpool Draw
Goalkeeper Injured in Rash Challenge
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola expressed pessimism regarding goalkeeper Ederson's injury after the Brazilian came off injured in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Liverpool at Anfield. Ederson suffered the injury early in the second half when he attempted to clear a backpass from Nathan Ake but collided with Darwin Nunez.
Nunez Challenge Raised Concerns
The collision raised concerns about Ederson's well-being, as Nunez's boot appeared to make contact with the goalkeeper's head. Ederson was able to make a clearance off the line moments later, but was substituted shortly after.
Guardiola's Pessimism
Guardiola, speaking after the match, expressed his concern about Ederson's injury. "It doesn't look good," Guardiola said. "He has a problem in his ankle, and we'll see how he is in the next few days."
Impact on Title Race
Ederson's injury could have a significant impact on City's title hopes. The Brazilian goalkeeper has been a key figure for Guardiola's side, keeping 10 clean sheets in 19 Premier League appearances this season.
Next Steps
City will await further news on Ederson's injury, but Guardiola has already hinted that he may need to sign a replacement goalkeeper if Ederson is ruled out for an extended period.
