In an action without apparent danger, while he was preparing to recover a ball hooked in the surface, Ter Stegen supported poorly and collapsed on the pitch.
The German goalkeeper quickly began exclaiming that he had injured his knee and his teammates called for medical assistance.
Ter Stegen’s face says it all and, in the absence of official confirmation, it seems that he is suffering from a Complete rupture of the patellar tendon of the right knee.
This injury would keep him out for the entire season, much like what happened to Thibaut Courtois a year ago.
Indeed, the Real Madrid goalkeeper wanted to send a message to the German on social networks to wish him a speedy recovery.
“I’m sorry for the injury, Ter Stegen, It hurt me a lot to see you leave the field like that.“I hope you can recover soon and that we will see you in goal again,” read the text, which was applauded by the two supporters.
