Sergi Roberto suffers hamstring injury against Atletico Madrid

Barcelona confirmed on Saturday that Sergi Roberto suffered a hamstring injury in the 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid.

The 26-year-old started the game in midfield, with Nelson Semedo at right-back, but was forced off just before half-time after a collision with Koke.

Rafinha replaced Roberto at the start of the second half, with Barca subsequently confirming the nature of the Spain star’s injury.
