Any news on his injury??
Apparently he felt unwell before the match and they only expected him to get through an hour

Sarr arriving at training:I’ve heard he’s been struggling for a while with the weight of those massive balls
His desire to get back and win that header at the far post second half is what I love about him.
He had been ill leading up to yesterday and Ange only expected to get about 60 monutes from him.Any news on his injury??
he could be really fantastic if he continues to develop like this.
Agree with above, however, he did get caught in possession by Pallinha a few times (at least I think it was him),when we were on the front foot, by trying to turn rather than a simple pass backwards or sideways, which meant they could break on us. Fortunately we were able to recover without any damage, this time!I've been impressed by him all season. His work rate and desire to make things happen have been clear for all to see.
But yesterday his tactical awareness and positioning was really top quality. Watching him switch from central midfield to covering right back to getting in the box to try to get goals was really top drawer.
So many great things about this little clip.
Sarr making up the ground to win the header.
Vicario's instant reaction.
The look of resignation by Raul after getting beat to the ball.
Also - subtle - but watch Romero - as the ball goes over his head, he instinctively positions himself to guard the far post if Raul did get a header in that direction.Hojbjerg reaction is like he's celebrating a goal as well.
It's the one thing that annoys me sometimes when the attacker shows more hunger to win a ball than the defender. The defending player should always fight to attack the ball as much if not more. It wasn't just Sarr though, the urgency to recover the ball by everyone after a mistake was most impressive. Like Vicario gave it away a couple of times but his team mates put the extra effort to cover for him. It's this togetherness that will help young players like Sarr thrive. It means he can take risks and not be afraid as he will have others cover for him too as he will cover for them.
He covers so much ground in there. It does remind me of the kind of work Kante was putting in.

If Bentancur is back healthy - it will suck less.Not having him in Jan is going to really suck.
strangely I thought it was his best performance yetApparently he felt unwell before the match and they only expected him to get through an hour
