El Tri achieved a important victory over Costa Rica for the Concacaf Qualifiers , but at a high price. Alexis Vega , one of the players with the greatest projection of the Mexican team, suffered a severe blow that took him out on a stretcher from the match against “Los Ticos” . The images confirmed the worst and the player of Chivas de Guadalajara suffered a sprained ankle , which is why he now moves with the help of a pair of crutches.
On crutches! 😮
This is how Alexis Vega arrived in Panama 👀

In the last hours it was debated whether Vega should return to Mexico with his club, but finally he remains with the Aztec team , despite the fact that he will not be able to play against Panama. In this sense, the Mexican team arrived in Panamanian lands and Alexis Vega surprised everyone by moving on crutches after his arrival.

Without a doubt, the absence of the Chivas player will be quite significant in Gerardo Martino’s scheme . The Mexican soccer player had won the position thanks to his participation with his club and, in addition, emerged as an alternative to the great absences in the call.
The Chivas are angry with the Mexican team
Reports indicate that in the Sacred Flock there is annoyance over the decision to keep Alexis Vega with the squad , although it is clearly ruled out for the match against Panama. The midfielder would return to Mexico in about three days, which undoubtedly would be delaying his rehabilitation process to return to the courts as soon as possible.

Recovery from Vega’s injury can be varied. Your second degree sprain should be treated for about four to eight weeks . Under these circumstances, the Chivas midfielder would miss a important stretch of Liga MX with his club .
