Alexander Zverev confirms his injury after the match

Tennis 04/06/2022


The epic battle that starred Rafa Nadal and Alexander Zverev in the semifinals of Roland Garros ended in the worst possible way. Rafa Nadal threw a parallel right, which Zverev sought by moving sideways. His foot was hooked and bent so violently that he anticipated the worst prognosis. As well as her cries of pain and how she wallowed in the earth until they came to her rescue. The doctors evacuated him in a wheelchair to assess the injury. He was far from fit to continue.

He returned eight minutes later with his right foot bare and leaning on crutches. To hug Rafa Nadal and inform him of his abandonment and that he left the way clear to the final after a huge battle of three hours and five minutes.

A terrible news that definitely separated the German from the fight for the title of champion of Roland Garros, and that it will also do so in a few tournaments more predictably.

"Very difficult time for me today on the court, obviously a fantastic match until what happened. It seems I have a very serious injury. The medical team and the doctors are just checking. We will keep you informed, we will let you know as soon as we know more," Zverev said in a video posted on Roland Garros' Twitter account
