Barcelona authored another comeback against Real Oviedo on Thursday night, coming from a goal down to win 3-1. However the cost was significant, with Hansi Flick set to be without two key starters for the coming weeks.
Flick confirmed after the game that Raphinha had come off with an injury in the second half, with the Brazilian straining his hamstring. What they did not expect was the injury to goalkeeper Joan Garcia, who suffered an injury in training on Friday morning.
Raphinha and Joan Garcia to miss key games
According to Diario AS, Raphinha has a hamstring injury that he suffered at the Nuevo Carlos Tartiere, which will keep him out for around three weeks. It is not yet clear what the issue is that has affected Garcia, but he is also set to be out for around three weeks, implying it is also a muscle strain. That will keep them out until after the international break on the way in October.
