Manchester City and Inter Milan meet in the UEFA Champions League final in a great match, but in the first 35 minutes, Pep Guardiola's team received the worst news of all. Kevin De Bruyne was unable to continue and asked to be substituted before the end of the first half.

 

It should be recalled that this is not the first time it has happened to the Belgian striker, after in the last final in 2021, the player could not continue after a blow to the face with Antonio Rudiger. Now, everything indicates that it is a muscle overload and possibly a problem in his thigh.

The Belgian player is undoubtedly one of the key pieces of the Citizen team and much of his performance is reflected in the good results of the team. Therefore, it is a very expensive exit for the English team ahead of the UEFA Champions League final. The player has not been able to arrive in a great way to this duel.

One of the players who first noticed the player's injury was precisely Erling Haaland, Manchester City's star striker, who saw the player lying on the ground with an obvious face of pain. Haaland did not hesitate to help his teammate before learning that he would not be able to continue.

 

What did Haaland made when he saw that De Bruyne could not continue?

The Norwegian striker was the first to go to help his teammate, but unfortunately, the Belgian asked for the change and was substituted. This decision caused Haaland a great deal of concern and one could see a worried face and some uncertainty as to how they would handle the rest of the game.
