Goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez has successfully undergone surgery after sustaining a significant injury during his recent match. Martinez spent eight minutes receiving treatment on the pitch before being carried off on a stretcher.

Thank you all for your messages. The operation went well. The most important thing is that we won and kept a clean sheet. I'll be back on the pitch in a few weeks. Emiliano Martinez
