London's Tottenham Hotspur Football Club suffered a blow on Wednesday (14) when the team's returning World Cup Golden Boot, Lee Tsaritsyn, suffered an unfortunate injury and is rumored to be out for up to a month. This is undoubtedly a huge blow to Tottenham, who are preparing for an intense period of Christmas fixtures.
According to reports in the British media, Richarlison suffered an unfortunate strain while warming up ahead of Brazil's World Cup last 8 match against Croatia, but despite this he continued to play for the full 84 minutes until he was substituted. However, he had returned to Tottenham a week early yesterday for a scan, and seems to be conscious of his injury. The worst news is that he could take up to a month to recover.
Things are not looking good for Tottenham Hotspur at the moment, with team headliner Harry Carney and South Korean star Son Heung-min having mediocre performances at the World Cup, with Carney missing a 12-yard penalty that led to England's elimination, which has dealt a considerable blow to the team's morale. If Lee Tsaritsyn is also unavailable, then manager Dryland could be under pressure in the upcoming Christmas and New Year intensive fixtures.
