Claudio Bravo gives Manchester City injury scare as goalkeeper hobbles off with a knee problem for Chile

Manchester City could be facing a goalkeeper crisis after Claudio Bravo suffered a knee injury during Chile’s World Cup qualifier against Colombia on Thursday night.

The 33-year-old limped off in the 64th minute following a heavy collision with Santiago Arias as he raced out to block a shot during the 0-0 draw in Barranquilla.

Pep Guardiola now faces an anxious wait before finding out how serious the injury is. After allowing Joe Hart to join Torino on loan, the only other senior goalkeeper at City is 35-year-old Willy Caballero.

Bravo hurt his right leg blocking a run into the six-yard box by right back Arias in the 52nd minute but played on after treatment before asking to be substituted, showing signs of being in some pain, 12 minutes later.
