On the eve of the Champions League match with the Danish club, Barcelona lost their main goalkeeper.
On Wednesday morning, it was revealed that Victor Valdes would not be able to play in the duel with "Kobenhavn". According to an official statement issued by the Catalan club, the goalkeeper suddenly developed a temperature and felt nauseous.
A more precise diagnosis should be determined after further examinations.
In the absence of V. Valdes, Jose Manuel Pinto will replace him in Barcelona's goal, and "Barcelona B" goalkeeper Ruben Mino has been additionally included in the Catalan club's squad for the match against "Kobenhavn".
By the way, these will be the first Champions League matches for J. M. Pinto in the ranks of Barcelona. This season, the experienced goalkeeper only played in the Joan Gamper Trophy match against "Milan" and became its hero. In a penalty shoot-out, he saved three opponent's shots and secured the victory for Camp Nou hosts.
J. M. Pinto has already played in the Champions League in the 2003-2004 season, defending the goal of Celta Vigo.
