Two "Roma" players had to lie under the surgeon's scalpel.

The "Roma" team confirmed the information that successful operations were performed today on two of its football players.

Forward Edin Dzeko had to lie under the surgeon's scalpel, as he suffered two fractures of the right cheekbone in the match against "Cagliari" last weekend.

Meanwhile, defender Amadou Diawara underwent knee meniscus surgery, where a small tear was noticed.

E.Dzeko will not be able to represent his national team in the European Championship qualifying matches, and after a few weeks of break, he will have to wear a protective mask in "Roma" matches.

A.Diawara will not play for about a month.
