Infortunio Nuno Tavares: esce in lacrime, le condizioni (Lapresse) – SerieAnews
A bad tegola for Lazio and for Marco Baroni. Nuno Tavares ended up knocked out again. The former Arsenal left-back had just returned from an injury and looked like he could have been the biancocelesti’s biggest weapon. And instead yet another injury in an all too troubled season for the flank slider, Serie A’s second-ranked assist man.
He took over during the second half, at 68′ in place of Marusic, and raised the white flag during the first half overtime replaced by Hysaj. Nuno Tavares came out in tears, a sign that certainly does not bode well for the continuation of the season. The full-back was not exactly in top condition and was massaging his adductor during halftime.
Baroni himself had asked the boy if he was able to continue playing and received a positive answer. Evidently he asked too much of his muscles. Upon the player’s exit from the field, the embrace between the fullback and the coach was almost touching.

Given the player’s reaction, it would appear to be something serious. He will certainly miss the next league match against Cagliari, but it is feared he may have already finished the season. Only tomorrow, however, with examinations at the clinic, will the outcome of the injury and the recovery time be determined.

Nevertheless, he has often been held back by a muscle frailty that has caused him to miss several matches. Nuno Tavares had just returned from a problem suffered against Atalanta, an injury to his adductors, those muscles that have been plaguing him for months.
This season as many as 14 games missed due to injury and 100 days in which he was unavailable. The first knock suffered last November that kept him out from the 17th of the month until December 7: thigh injury and four missed matches. Then, with the arrival of the new year, the first adductor injury on Jan. 23 that kept him out until Feb. 5 for four more missed contests.
The third injury between March 16 and April 3, a muscle problem that caused him to miss two games while he missed three others in the 11 days he was out from April 6 to 16 due to an adductor problem. And today the new relapse.
