[OSEN=노진주 기자] In the end, a long-term departure was confirmed.
Tottenham announced on its official website on the 1st (Korean time), “Midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur (26) will be excluded from the roster for approximately two months.”
Bentancur started in the match once morest Aston Villa in the 13th round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) season held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 26th. However, he was substituted in the 32nd minute of the first half. Because of injury. The team lost 1-2.
Bentancur, who had been out of action for a long time due to injury last season, returned as a starting resource for the first time in a long time, but became the victim of a ‘killer tackle’. He suffered a ruptured cruciate ligament in the game once morest Leicester City in February of this year and has been focusing on rehabilitation for a long time.
The injury situation that day was as follows. Aston Villa’s Matt Cash tackled Bentancur as he attempted to build up from behind. Bentancur collapsed and complained of pain for a while. He had a very painful expression. The tackle was so deep. It wasn’t even a fierce ball competition. Tottenham colleagues were furious.
Bentancur, who announced his return last month, improved his sense of the game as a substitute and played as a starter for the first time following injury on this day, but it ended in a nightmare.
British media outlet ‘Evening Standard’ said, “Bentancur tried to continue playing immediately following the injury. However, he himself sent a sign to the bench for a replacement, and he “left the stadium limping,” the report said.
‘Football London’ also said, “When Bentancur collapsed, Tottenham players protested towards Cash. “He looked very angry,” he said.
Coach Angie Postecoglou shook her head in a post-match interview and said, “It really wasn’t a great tackle,” and added, “It’s disappointing that he has to go out due to injury.”
