Lewandowski Out for Copa del Rey Semi-Final Against Atletico
Barcelona has announced that striker Robert Lewandowski will not participate in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final against Atletico Madrid. The announcement came after Lewandowski suffered a broken eye socket during a match against Villarreal.
Medical tests confirmed a fracture in his left eye socket, which will prevent him from playing in the crucial match. Barcelona currently trails Atletico Madrid 4-1 from the first leg of the semi-final.
The 37-year-old Lewandowski has not played this season under coach Hansi Flick, and the team will have to strategize without him. The injury adds to the challenges facing Barcelona as they aim to overturn the deficit in the upcoming match.
