LONDON, July 10 (Bernama-PA media/dpa) -- Spain is confident captain Alvaro Morata will be fit for Sunday’s Euro 2024 after the Atletico Madrid striker was hurt in a bizarre incident following their 2-1 victory over France, reported German news agency (dpa).
Morata was celebrating Spain’s semi-final success with teammates in Munich when a member of security staff slipped and collided with him while trying to accost a pitch invader.
The 31-year-old was seen clutching his right knee after the collision and will be assessed.
Spain manager Luis de la Fuente said: “We are going to wait on Alvaro until tomorrow. We don’t think it’s anything, but his leg hurts. We think he’s going to be OK.”
