The Madrid team "Real" improved their mood on Sunday evening by defeating "Sevilla", but Ferland Mendy experienced a year-end injury during the same match. The French player started in both matches against PSG and Sevilla, but in the last games felt pain in his thigh muscles. "Real" confirmed that they will have to do without the full-back for a while. F. Mendy replaced Marcelo in the starting lineup, who also suffered an injury last week. The good news is that both Marcelo and Luka Modrić have already started training with the team, but it is not clear if they are ready for tomorrow's match. Since the summer, 12 key players of the Madrid team "Real" have suffered injuries. Asked about this at a press conference, Zinedine Zidane said that such things are simply uncontrollable. "I am not worried, but these injuries also bother me. I don't want to see injured players, but this is part of football. It is just uncontrollable. We have to accept the situation. We hope that Ferland's injury is not serious," said Z. Zidane. This summer, there were changes in the coaching staff of Madrid's "Real" - the highly respected fitness coach Antonio Pintus was replaced by the Frenchman Gregory Dupont, and all the injuries are now associated with his arrival. "I trust my medical staff and I know they are professionals in their field. Everyone can have their own opinion, but we must respect these people, they have proven a lot in their profession. The fact that players suffer injuries is not their fault. There are many factors involved," added Z. Zidane.
