Andrea Tarazona out at least a month with Dépor Abanca

Dépor Abanca failed to pick up points against Real Madrid and, on top of that, lost their starting goalkeeper before halftime. Andrea Tarazona had to leave the pitch after keeping the score down and then taking a knee to the back during an incident with a Real Madrid forward.

Injury in the first half

As Sport reports, Tarazona tried to carry on but couldn’t, and Inés Pereira came on. The team had to adjust quickly in-game, although the match ultimately ended with the three points for the visitors.

A few hours later, the club released the medical update. Dépor confirmed that Tarazona has a fracture in the right floating rib.

Minimum month on the sidelines

Sport adds that the club didn’t provide a precise recovery timetable, but the goalkeeper will be out at least a month. Dépor also states that they have the goalkeeping position covered, so they can manage the period of absence while she recovers.

For now, the key question is how the injury progresses and whether Pereira continues to take the lead in goal throughout the coming weeks after the setback against Real Madrid.
