Roberto Martínez charges against Rüdiger for injuring De Bruyne

Kevin De Bruyne, one of Manchester City's stars, It is serious doubt for the Eurocopa 2020 after suffering a double fracture to the face from colliding with Antonio Rüdiger last night in the Champions League final against Chelsea.

De Bruyne was forced to retire after an hour playing in Porto after the action with Antonio Rüdiger, who received yellow card. A distraught de Bruyne was crying inconsolably when they forced him out. An ice pack was applied to the affected area before the City medical staff took him away shortly. His face was swollen and he was stunned.

Specialists at the hospital confirmed a double fracture, which has questioned whether De Bruyne will be fit to play with Belgium in the Eurocup. The coach of the national team, Roberto Martínez, said that Rüdiger should have received a red card direct for the foul that ended De Bruyne's night.

For me, Rüdiger is very, very lucky. When you watch the replay, there is no question. He's putting off his shoulder against Kevin. For me, it was excessive force and recklessness. Kevin is not a player who falls for no reason. You can see the pain and there is a swollen eye. It left him shocked and we will see if he recovers in time “, warned the natural coach of Balaguer.

Sources close to De Bruyne cited by 'The Mirror' say that They trust that you will be fit to play, it is not even ruled out that you have to wear a protective mask.

Rüdiger apologizes to De Bruyne

Chelsea's German international tweeted the following message: “I'm really sorry for Kevin. Of course, it was not intended on my part. I have already been in contact with him personally and I really wish him a speedy recovery and hope that we can see him back on the field very soon again. “

Henry, assistant again to Roberto Martínez

The Twitter account of the Belgian team confirmed that the Arsenal legend Thierry Henry will accompany Spanish coach Roberto Martínez in this Eurocup. A function already carried out by the French when Belgium achieved third place in the tournament 2018. Quickly, the fans of the 'Red Devils' left samples of their joy in networks.
