Injury Woes for Mikel Arteta as Defender Forced to Exit Game Early
In a major setback for Arsenal, Kieran Tierney has been forced off the field with a calf injury during Scotland’s thrilling clash against Spain.
The left-back required medical attention in the latter stages of the game and was subsequently replaced by Liam Cooper in the 76th minute. While Tierney has found regular game time hard to come by at the Emirates this season, his standout performance for Scotland at Hampden was a testament to his abilities.
The former Celtic star provided the assist for Scott McTominay’s second goal with a sensational run down the left flank, but unfortunately sustained an injury in the process.
This news will be a cause for concern for Mikel Arteta, who is eyeing Arsenal’s first Premier League title in nearly two decades. The Gunners face Leeds United at home this Saturday, but it is unlikely that Tierney will be available for selection.
