Además del dolor emocional que significó la derrota en la final de la Champions League, Kevin de Bruyne ahora también debe enfrentar las consecuencias físicas que le dejó el accidental choque que tuvo con el defensor del Chelsea, Antonio Rüdiger: una fractura nasal y otra alrededor de su ojo izquierdo.
Fuerte choque de cabezas entre De Bruyne y Rüdiger y las asistencias deben entrar.
Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne fractured his nose and a bone around his left eye socket in Saturday's Champions League loss to Chelsea, the 29-year-old said on Sunday.
The Belgium international had to go off on the hour mark with a concussion injury in City's 1-0 defeat at Porto's Estádio do Dragão after an accidental clash with Chelsea defender Antonio Rüdiger left him on the ground.
Hay un dicho anónimo que dice que un 71 por ciento de la Tierra está cubierta por agua y que el 29 restante lo cubre N'Golo Kanté. El futbolista francés es una máquina, pese a su 168 cm. de estatura. Su humildad y su alegría, además, lo han convertido en un jugador de culto y que merece más que nadie el título de la Champions League que el Chelsea acaba de levantar. Los londinenses obtuvieron la segunda Orejona de su historia, luego de vencer por 1-0 al Manchester City.
PORTO, Portugal — Manchester City face Chelsea in the Champions League final on Saturday. Here are five key tactical battles to watch out for.
WILL CHELSEA'S WING-BACKS BE ABLE TO ATTACK?
Thomas Tuchel's system at Chelsea has been designed to give licence to the wing backs to attack, whether it be Cesar Azpilicueta or Reece James on the right and Ben Chilwell or Marcos Alonso on the left, the German has players who are effective in transition and provide width.
BRUSSELS - Belgium’s Axel Witsel was included in the squad for next month’s European Championship with coach Roberto Martínez gambling the influential midfielder will be fit in time for the tournament.
Witsel, 32, had surgery on an Achilles tendon injury suffered with Borussia Dortmund in January and has not played since but has been a key part of Belgium's lineup, winning the last of his 110 caps against England last November.
“Witsel is recovering well and working really hard to be completely fit and is ahead of his recovery schedule," Martínez told reporters on Monday.
¡Qué final de la Liga de Campeones de Europa se nos viene, señores! Dos equipos ingleses, Chelsea y Manchester City, buscarán colocar su nombre en la cima del balompié europeo.
Manchester City es el nuevo campeón de la Premier League.
El título llegó sin necesidad de entrar al campo de juego y se concretó luego de que Leicester City venciera a domicilio al Manchester United por 1-2.
A tres fechas del final, la diferencia de 10 puntos que separan a los Cityzens y los Diablos Rojos puede recortarse, pero no ser revertida.
Whenever Manchester United did not win the Premier League in the glory years of Alex Ferguson, their fans took comfort in teasing their rivals by saying the title was merely out on loan.
Manchester City fans trotted out the same line when Liverpool steamrollered their way to the title last season to end City's reign as kings of England, but even the most blinkered Sky Blue feared a power shift had occurred.
Temporada 2018-2019: Batalla campal, remontadas épicas, consorcio de buen fútbol y dominio inglés. Liverpool derrotó 2-0 al Tottenham y se llevó el título de títulos de la UEFA Champions League. Por su parte, Chelsea vapuleó 4-1 al Arsenal y consiguió la Europa League.
The 19th overall meeting between Mauricio Pochettino and Pep Guardiola ended in favor of the Catalan maestro, giving him 11 wins, five draws and only three defeats after Manchester City produced a rousing comeback against PSG on Wednesday to take a 2-1 lead back to the Etihad in the Champions League semifinals.
