Manchester City’s 2-0 triumph over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League was marred by concerning news regarding their starting goalkeeper, Ederson, who was compelled to leave the field at halftime due to injury.
The Brazilian exited the stadium with a specialized bandage, leaving City manager Pep Guardiola apprehensive about the situation.
Inquired about Ederson’s condition post-match, Guardiola’s response was far from reassuring: “It doesn’t look good.”

Ederson sustained the injury in the 35th minute but valiantly soldiered on until the end of the first half. However, Stefan Ortega took his position between the posts at the start of the second half. Given Ederson’s previous absence due to injury in March, it appears he may be facing yet another spell on the sidelines. The news are concerning for Brazil national also, as the Copa America tournament is right around the corner and Selecao are aiming at the title.
