Injury Nuno Tavares, what a tegola for Lazio: biancocelesti worried, condition of fullback
Infortunio Nuno Tavares, Lazio preoccupata: condizioni e come sta (Lapresse) – SerieAnews
It was a bad blow for Lazio, which was trying to give continuity to its season, just as the challenge with Atalanta at the Gewiss Stadium was unfolding in a tense atmosphere. At 34′ of the first half, with the score still tied at 0-0, Nuno Tavares was forced to stop, collapsing to the ground after suffering a muscle problem that immediately caused concern.
It was a situation that put the entire Biancoceleste environment on alert, with the bench visibly tense, especially in light of the difficulties the full-back had already faced during the season. The team’s immediate reaction was not long in coming: Marco Baroni, Lazio’s coach, sent Pellegrini on the pitch in the 35th minute, trying to contain the unexpected and keep the team focused on the match.
However, Tavares’ injury represents a real headache for Lazio, which is now facing a difficult situation right at a crucial moment of the season. In fact, in addition to Serie A, the Biancocelesti are also engaged in the Europa League, with the upcoming doubleheader against Bodo-Glimt, and of course the league derby against Roma, which will be a crucial game for the team’s ambitions.
Nuno Tavares infortunio: non è il primo per il terzino
An injury that echoes previous ones. Nuno Tavares, who had already had to deal with thigh and adductor muscle problems during the season, is now in danger of having to stop again for a period, a circumstance that jeopardizes his presence in the upcoming decisive engagements.

In order to know the extent of the injury and whether it is a muscle relapse, instrumental examinations to be carried out in the coming days are awaited. If the problem is severe, Lazio could be forced to do without its left back, an absence that would also be felt because of Tavares’ importance in the team’s defensive and offensive maneuvering. Suffice it to say that the full-back is the best assistman in the league and several big names are already on him.
A moment of concern for Lazio. The injury comes at a particularly delicate time for Baroni’s team, which cannot afford to lose any more important pieces of the squad. Lazio, in fact, is engaged in a tight fight for qualification for European competitions, and the derby against Roma is an appointment that cannot be missed.
The hope, for the Biancocelesti fans, is that Tavares’ injury is not as serious as feared and that the fullback will be able to return to the field soon, perhaps specifically to contribute in the decisive challenges facing the team.
Tavares’ future at Lazio, then, hangs by a thread. Whether the former Arsenal player will be forced to stop again will be known in the coming days, but what is certain is that his presence on the field is crucial to the team’s ambitions. With the hope that the injury is not serious and that Tavares will soon be back available, Lazio is preparing for intense weeks, with challenges that could spell the fate of the season.
Another muscle injury to add to a season already littered with setbacks. How will Lazio respond without Tavares? The championship, and European qualification, are more in the team’s hands than ever.
