Takumi Minamino had a bloody shin following the tackle from the Nice captain.
The Riviera derby between OGC Nice and AS Monaco was spectacular to say the least. Firstly because of the five goals scored, the Principality club having the last word with a 3-2 victory won at the neighbor’s home.
The match was also marked by the exclusion of Dante shortly before the hour mark. The reason? A sole on the shin of Takumi Minamino, the Japanese being left to finish the meeting with a bandage on the leg.
And it could have been worse given the images. A photo of the Monegasque player’s leg was also released after the match and we can actually see the marks left by the Brazilian defender’s crampons.
