Aston Villa gave Liverpool a scare with an injury, and Fabinho came on in anticipation of a matchup with Real Madrid.
Liverpool’s key midfielder, Fabinho, had to leave the field due to injury during Tuesday’s match against Aston Villa. He was substituted by Jordan Henderson in the 30th minute after apparently injuring his thigh. The full extent of his injury is yet to be confirmed by the club. Missing games beyond Monday would be unfortunate for both the player and the team, especially with important fixtures like the FA Cup final against Chelsea on Saturday and the Champions League final against Real Madrid on May 28. Jurgen Klopp expressed hope that Fabinho might recover in time for the FA Cup final but acknowledged the need for further assessment.
