The Copa Final Ended With 3 Real Madrid Players Injured, Tests Tomorrow

Real Madrid is already digesting the consequences of their defeat against FC Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final. The match at La Cartuja offered an inexplicable ending for the Madrid sports discipline, which managed to turn the game around and get ahead of the culé team. But the two individual errors by Thibaut Courtois and Brahim Díaz sealed the overtime and the Madrid defeat respectively.

In addition to that bad sports situation, Real Madrid has recorded up to three medical absences that need to be addressed as soon as possible. Because they still have the fight for the LaLiga leadership ahead: the four-point distance from FC Barcelona,  with five games and a Clásico remaining, gives hope.

The white club left Seville with up to three injured players. One of the most notable is Ferland Mendy, who was returning from a somewhat complicated injury but was chosen as a starter by Carlo Ancelotti. He barely lasted eight minutes on the field and had to leave his place to Fran García: his right quadriceps is a concern for Real Madrid's medical services.

With the French '23' ready to undergo his respective medical tests,  there will be a noticeable stir at Real Madrid's Sports City. Because Antonio Rüdiger will also have to undergo a medical examination to know for sure what ailment he has. Aside from his possible sanction for what happened in the last minute of the match, the German '22' suffers from discomfort in his right knee.

High Tension

The last injured player that Real Madrid received in the Copa del Rey final against FC Barcelona is Dani Ceballos. The Andalusian '19' tried to control the midfield but didn't have the effectiveness many expected from him, perhaps due to his discomfort in his left ankle. The information from Arancha Rodríguez has revealed these ailments of Real Madrid players after the Copa final at La Cartuja.

The renowned journalist from Cadena COPE points out that "between today and tomorrow" these three players will undergo the respective medical examination and tests at Real Madrid's facilities. The goal is to discern what ailment they have and the recovery time for each injury.

Carlo Ancelotti has seen three of his most important players get injured in a high-caliber and important match. Despite the defeat in the Copa del Rey final inviting thoughts of 'abandoning' the current soccer season, the fight for the LaLiga leadership still remains. That's why the coaching staff would like to have as many players as possible given the 'battle' against FC Barcelona.

Only the verdict of those medical tests, which the injured players will undergo in Valdebebas "between today and tomorrow", will determine with which players Real Madrid reaches the final stretch of the season. The last five LaLiga matches are, at the same time, the demanding prelude to another competition marked as mandatory from the offices of Valdebebas: the Club World Cup.
