Portugal's national team, aiming for the title of the FIFA Confederations Cup, lost their main left-back defender.
It is reported that the 23-year-old versatile player from Dortmund's "Borussia" club suffered a broken left foot during the FIFA Confederations Cup match against Russia. It is already clear that the Portuguese will no longer be able to participate in this tournament.
R. Guerreiro suffered the injury in the second half when he was forcibly replaced by Lisbon's "Benfica" defender Eliseu in the 65th minute. The 33-year-old Portuguese will now have to take his team mate's place on the field until the end of the tournament.
Furthermore, this news did not please the "Borussia" club, as R. Guerreiro, who can play in the defender and midfielder positions, will have to miss the beginning of the season.
R. Guerreiro made a significant contribution to the victory in the match against Russia - it was his excellent pass that led to Cristiano Ronaldo scoring the winning goal and almost securing a spot for Portugal in the semi-finals.
