Real Madrid defender David Alaba suffers new injury setback

Real Madrid defender David Alaba was forced off injured during their Champions League win at Liverpool.

It was in the 23rd minute of a great game at Anfield when a goal line scramble broke out inside the box.

In the aftermath, Alaba quickly asked for medical assistance and pointed to his right hamstring.

He could not carry on and a change was quickly signalled by the medical staff. The best news for him is that he was able to leave the pitch on his feet and not on a stretcher.

Despite not knowing the full extent of the injury report, the initial signs don't look good.
