Diego González gave the big scare in the friendly in which Real Zaragoza beat Bilbao Athletic. The white-and-white centre-back, who is emerging as the great figure within the white defence, had to leave the pitch in the middle of the first half after suffering a brutal clash of heads with the defender of the Basque reserve team, Telmo Zarandona.
The defender collapsed to the turf after the impact and after the alarm and startle of his teammates, the assists had to come in quickly to attend to him. After being treated for several minutes on the pitch, Diego González had to be taken off on a stretcher with his head immobilized and left his place to Hugo Barrachina, putting the greatest concern of the match.
In this way, the footballer suffered a brain contusion as a result of the blow and already conscious, he was evacuated from the Ibercaja Stadium where the match was being played to a hospital where medical tests were carried out to determine that he does not suffer a major problem or injury.
In addition, after the tests, Diego González has remained this Friday night under observation in the hospital, waiting to know the results and his evolution after the strong impact. Real Zaragoza will continue his condition over the next few hours before determining the next steps with a player who will be out for sure for the last friendly this Saturday against Numancia.
