Alarm at Real. Militao suspected of serious muscle injury

Eder Militao suffered an injury and was unable to leave the pitch unaided during Real Madrid's clash with Celta, a match that ended in a sensational victory for the side from Vigo.

According to journalist Mario Cortegana, the defender has a muscle injury in the hamstring area, which is raising serious concerns. Militao will undergo further medical tests tomorrow.

After a controversial match, Real will certainly have questions for the referee, who sent off Carreras and Fran Garcia. It's worth noting that, with high probability, Xabi Alonso will be without as many as eight defenders for the next La Liga fixture: Huijsen, Militao, Alexander-Arnold, Carvajal, Alaba, Mendy, Carreras, and Fran Garcia.
