Jesus wept on last day of 2017 as Man City lose winning run – FCNaija

It was almost a perfect picture of what happened in the book of John 11:35 in the Christian bible, where Jesus wept, in what is the shortest passage in the Holy Book, as Gabriel Jesus, of Manchester City, wept, as he was replaced after suffering an injury in the goalless draw against Crystal Palace on Sunday, which brought to an end, the club’s Premier League record 18-game winning run.

The Brazilian attacker Jesus was visibly upset on the sidelines and had to be consoled by head coach Pep Guardiola, before Sergio Aguero replaced him in the 23rd minute.

Initial suspicions based on his reaction are it could be a cruciate knee injury, similar to those suffered by team-mates Benjamin Mendy and Ilkay Gundogan, which could mean he would be out for the rest of the season and possibly miss the World Cup.Football Prediktor

Jesus originally went down in pain just 11 minutes into the weekend’s clash, but decided to play on.

It soon became apparent, however, that he was not going to be able to continue, forcing City into the early change.

Meanwhile, another Manchester City player, Kevin De Bruyne, was also taken off injured in the closing minutes of the game after he was clattered by Jason Puncheon as City counterattacked following Luka Milivojevic’s saved penalty and his injury could also see him sidelined for a significant chunk of time.Football Prediktor
