However, in the closing minutes of the game, the young midfielder was forced to leave the field due to a twisted knee.
While concerns grew over Camavinga’s fitness for the crucial Champions League semi-final second leg at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday, Ancelotti tried to ease fears during a recent update on the player’s condition. Ancelotti stated, “He twisted his knee, but it’s just a knock. Tomorrow he’ll rest like everyone who played, and I hope that on Monday he trains with the team.”
Despite the injury scare, Ancelotti remains optimistic about Camavinga’s recovery, emphasizing the stability of the player’s knee as a positive sign. Although the midfielder is currently experiencing some discomfort, Ancelotti reassured everyone that the knee’s stability remains unaffected, which is the most crucial aspect of the injury.
“He’ll recover soon for sure. The knee is stable; he has some discomfort now, but the important thing is the stability, and he has that 100%. He has some discomfort in the knee, but it’s nothing,” Ancelotti explained confidently.
The potential setback posed by Camavinga’s injury comes as Real Madrid gears up to face Manchester City in the decisive second leg of the Champions League semi-finals. The Spanish giants aim to overturn the 1-1 draw from the first leg in Madrid to secure their spot in the highly coveted final.
Real Madrid’s medical staff will closely monitor Camavinga’s recovery process, working diligently to ensure his readiness for the crucial encounter. The team and Ancelotti will be eagerly awaiting positive updates in the coming days as they strategize to overcome the formidable Manchester City side.
The clash between Real Madrid and Manchester City promises to be a thrilling and high-stakes encounter, and the injury setback for Camavinga adds an additional layer of complexity to the Spanish club’s preparations.
