Morata injury: he misses the Cup and the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 due to a sprained knee | Soccer | Sports – Archyde

The Madrid attacker left the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán pitch in the final minutes of the first half after a bad fall in an action with French midfielder Boubakary Soumaré. Memphis Depay came on in his place in the second half.
“On Monday morning an MRI was performed to find out the extent of the injury and the report offered by the medical services indicates that he suffers a bone contusion and a sprain of the internal lateral ligament of his right knee,” the mattress entity reported.
Atlético de Madrid forward Álvaro Morata suffers a bone contusion and a sprain of the internal lateral ligament in his right knee, which occurred in this Sunday’s defeat against Sevilla (1-0), the red and white club confirmed this Monday.
Although the red and white club limits itself to ensuring that it is “pending development”, the player will be out for between two and three weeks, meaning that he will miss, at least, in addition to the LaLiga matches against Las Palmas and Almería, the Champions League round of 16 first leg match against Inter at San Siro (Tuesday, February 20). Also the return of the Cup semi-finals on Thursday, February 29 in San Mamés, where Atlético has to overcome a 0-1 deficit if they want to play in the final.
