Adriano will not play due to injury for 4 to 6 weeks © EuroFootball.com

"Barcelona" team's victory in the duel with Madrid's "Rayo Vallecano" was overshadowed by the injury of defender Adriano Correia. Starting in the lineup, the Brazilian did not play even 45 minutes. Halfway through the first half, temporary Barcelona coach Jordi Roura was forced to make a substitution and bring Daniel Alves onto the field. Immediate medical tests confirmed the worst prognosis for Adriano's health. It was determined that the defender had a muscle tear in his right thigh. According to initial data, due to this injury Adriano will be unable to take to the field for 4 to 6 weeks. This means that the Barcelona defender will not only miss several upcoming matches in the Spanish league, but also will not be able to help his team in both Champions League quarterfinal matches against Paris Saint-Germain."
