Terrified players
Several players have been put off completely due to Harit’s terrible injury. Some covered their eyes, while Marseille star Dimitri Payet shook his head in desperation.
The appearance of all the players was certainly not encouraging. These are not good pictures. Robin Hogan commented on Direktesport, There are terrifying players here.
The medical staff attended Harit, still writhing in pain. Eventually, the stretcher entered the field as well.
After several minutes of stopping play, he was carried from the stadium on a stretcher as Marseille fans cheered him by chanting his name.
Harit was also recently named to Morocco’s World Cup squad, but it now looks as if the World Cup dream is falling apart for the 25-year-old.
– said Haugen when it takes so long, there is no doubt that this is probably the most dangerous for Harriet.
