Barcelona’s star striker, Robert Lewandowski, faced an unfortunate setback during their recent Champions League clash against Porto on Wednesday. The Polish sensation suffered a left ankle sprain that forced him to be substituted off the field before halftime. The injury not only disappointed Barcelona fans but also raised concerns about his availability for the much awaited El Clasico showdown at the end of this month.

Lewandowski’s early exit from the Porto match was a cause for concern among both the coaching staff and supporters. The prolific goal-scorer has been a crucial component of Barcelona’s attack since his arrival at the club. His absence in the Champions League game was disappointing as the team struggled to find the back of the net without his clinical finishing, however they still managed to win with a single goal.

Following the game, the Barcelona medical team conducted a thorough examination of Lewandowski’s ankle injury. The diagnosis confirmed a left ankle sprain, a common injury that often requires careful rehabilitation.
