Copa del Rey: Barcelona suffer major injury blow ahead of Atletico second leg

Barcelona striker, Robert Lewandowski, will not be able to play in the second match of their Copa del Rey semi-final against Atletico Madrid.

The LaLiga leaders are trailing 4-1 from the first game.

And they will try to come back without Lewandowski, who has a broken eye socket.

This was announced by Barcelona on Sunday.

The statement read: “Lewandowski got hurt in the game against Villarreal.

“Medical tests showed a fracture in his left eye socket.

“He won’t play against Atletico Madrid.”

The 37-year-old hasn’t had much playing time this season, as coach Hansi Flick has been using Ferran Torres in the middle. But he scored in their 4-1 win over Villarreal on Saturday.
