The defender Owen Hargreaves from the England national team and the German champions Bayern Munich may not be able to help the team in the upcoming UEFA Champions League second leg match against Real Madrid next Wednesday, as he suffered a shin injury in last week's match.
The 26-year-old footballer played in the 2-1 victory against Wolfsburg on Saturday, despite receiving a blow to his left leg in the Champions League match against Real. However, the defender failed to recover from the injury, and new tests will be performed on him.
"He will visit Dr. Muller-Wohlfahrt for additional treatment," explained Bayern's head coach Ottmar Hitzfield. - "We have to wait and see."
O. Hargreaves, who suffered a leg fracture at the beginning of the season and has only played seven matches for the Bavarian team, did not train with the team on Tuesday afternoon. His absence next week would be a huge loss for Bayern, as the team will have to seek revenge against the Spanish giant Real Madrid in front of their home crowd.
For the German team to advance, they would need to win by a one-goal margin of 1-0 or 2-1, as the visitors scored two goals in the match in Madrid last week.
