Blow for Guinea as Diawara suffers knee injury in Roma draw

Guinea have been dealt a huge blow after Amadou Diawara suffered a knee injury in Roma’s 1-1 draw against Cagliari on Sunday.

Diawara who was making his third appearance in the Serie A this season, could only play 29 minutes of football before he was stretchered off at the Stadio Olimpico.

The summer-signing was in tears as he was whisked off to the Villa Stuart clinic in a medical vehicle for further examination and treatment.

Diawara was subsequently replaced by Mirko Antonucci as the Giallorossi grabbed a crucial point at home.
