During the match involving the Vilnius team, a significant collision occurred in the 69th minute between a player from the local side and Bacary Sane. The incident took place near the center of the pitch while both competing squads were vying for control of a high-flying ball. Following the impact, the player who fell immediately indicated to the referee that he had sustained an injury.
While the match officials confirmed that no disciplinary action was issued by the referee regarding the collision, the subsequent medical evaluation revealed the seriousness of the physical contact. The former member of the Senegalese U17 national team was transported to the hospital and underwent extensive care, including three hours of facial surgery. Reports confirm that Bacary Sane underwent a cheekbone operation following the injuries sustained during the fixture against Vilnius “Žalgiris” the previous day.
Medical testing determined that the player’s cheekbone had fractured in two distinct locations. The nature and severity of the injury have necessitated a prolonged recovery period for the athlete. It is understood that this incident marks the conclusion of his current season.
The team and medical staff have been focused on the recovery process for Sane following the match played in Vilnius. The focus remains on the recovery timeline following the complex surgery performed on the cheekbone.
