Liverpool’s 3-0 victory over Aston Villa became incomplete when defender Alexander-Arnold was injured and had to leave the field midway through the second half.
Alexander-Arnold is injured
In the fourth round of the Premier League, Liverpool easily defeated Aston Villa with a score of 3-0. The goals of Szobozslai, Salah and Matty Cash’s own goal helped The Kop enjoy the joy.
Thus, Liverpool are still unbeaten after 4 rounds, including 3 victories. However, the Red Brigade’s victory became incomplete with the injury of defender Alexander-Arnold.
Player number 66 was hurt in the 71st minute. He could not continue playing and had to leave the field to make way for young player Amorn Quansah.
After the match, coach Jurgen Klopp updated his student’s situation. The German strategist shared:
“Things don’t look good. He has suffered a hamstring injury. We will have to check and monitor further. Up to now, he has not had this injury. But we will have to wait to see know the exact situation.”
Alexander-Arnold was given the captain’s armband in the match against Aston Villa. He played prominently in many attacking situations. It was the 25-year-old player who assisted Szobozslai to open the score.
At the present time, the force in Liverpool’s defense is quite thin. Therefore, if the English defender is injured and has to take a long break, it is definitely not happy news for The Kop.
