Football: Atletico Sweating On Injury Concerns Ahead Of Champions League Semifinal
Jose Maria Gimenez: Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone is sweating on the fitness of four players -- Julian Alvarez, David Hancko, Ademola Lookman, and Jose Maria Gimenez, ahead of Wednesday's Champions League semifinal first leg at home to Arsenal.
With Atletico's only remaining title chance this season lying in Europe after its Copa del Rey final defeat to Real Sociedad, Simeone's side faces an Arsenal team that has dipped in form in recent weeks, with a place in what would be the club's third Champions League final under the Argentine at stake.
Spain international midfielder Pablo Barrios will miss both legs of the semifinal after picking up another muscle injury in Saturday's 3-2 win at home to Athletic Club, while there are question marks over the participation of Julian Alvarez, David Hancko, Ademola Lookman, and Jose Maria Gimenez, reports Xinhua.
