Spanish defender Eric Garcia left the stadium urgently after the match between Barcelona and Club Brugge, heading to the hospital for medical examinations after suffering a serious injury to his nose, which is suspected to be a fracture, according to the Spanish newspaper "Marca."

The newspaper reported that the player felt sharp pain after a strong collision with Club Brugge's player, Vermaert, during an aerial challenge in the final seconds of the match, which resulted in noticeable bleeding from his nose that required immediate medical attention. Coach Hans Flick decided to substitute him right away to prevent the injury from worsening.

Eric Garcia confirmed in statements after the match that he is not reassured about his health condition, saying: "I think I broke my nose. I felt a lot of pain after the collision, and I will undergo medical examinations to determine the nature of the injury."

According to a report by Marca, the medical staff of Barcelona did not wait long after the end of the match, as they took the player to a medical center for X-rays and necessary tests to determine the severity of the injury.

If it is confirmed that Eric Garcia has a broken nose, he is likely to miss the upcoming match against Celta Vigo, or he may participate wearing a protective mask, as the team is currently struggling with multiple injuries.

García also spoke candidly about his team's performance against Club Brugge, clearly criticizing the players' performance. He said, "They posed a significant threat to us on counterattacks, and we need to improve on that. We tried to respond, but when you fall behind, then score, and get scored on again, it becomes very difficult."

He added: "We must continue to work; there is no other option. Defense and attack are everyone's responsibility, not just the responsibility of the back line. We lose the ball in dangerous areas, which gives the opponent an advantage, and we need to reduce these mistakes in the upcoming matches."
