Dani Ceballos couldn't finish the Copa del Rey semifinal match against Real Sociedad (0-1) at the Reale Arena. The Andalusian midfielder caused great concern at Real Madrid after receiving a hard blow to his right knee. In fact, although the injury occurred on his left leg, during the last minutes of the match, after a tough clash with Take Kubo.

In the 92nd minute, Ceballos, as he had done throughout the entire match, fought for a ball with the Japanese forward, which ended in a knee impact. The one who was most affected was the Madrid player, who fell to the ground screaming in pain. At that moment, Sánchez Martínez was forced to stop the match so that the footballer could receive the appropriate medical attention.

Dani Ceballos, Injured at the Last Moment

The Real Madrid midfielder received attention off the field and couldn't continue in the match. The team doctor immediately requested his substitution, but the Whites had already exhausted the five allowed substitutions.

Dani Ceballos left the field supported by the medical staff, trying to hide his tears by covering his face with his jersey. We will have to wait for the results of the tests to be conducted on him this Thursday in Madrid to know the exact extent of the injury. However, the concern both in him and his teammates was more than evident.
