The first round of the Premier League, Tottenham’s home game against Leicester City was a tense and exciting affair, with both sides battling for 90 minutes to draw 1-1. However, more concerning than the on-field action was the injury to Bentancur.
In the 75th minute of the game, Bentancur collided with Faes, resulting in a head injury. After Bentancur fell to the ground, referee Christopher Kavanagh immediately stopped the game, allowing Bentancur to receive treatment quickly. The game was halted for 8 minutes, during which Bentancur received oxygen from medical staff. Before being stretchered off the field, he regained consciousness and was able to sit up. Bentancur was substituted using a concussion substitute rule, rather than a regular substitution.
Tottenham manager Postecoglou said: “I don’t have much information to give you yet, all I know is that he’s regained consciousness, he can sit up and communicate, so that’s positive. It’s a head injury, and I’ve handed him over to the medical team.”
