Fabregas targeted by Senegal fans after Diao injury in Roma 1-0 Como
Cesc Fabregas is far from the most popular man in Senegal at the moment following the injury sustained by Assane Diao during Monday evening’s Serie A clash between Roma and Como, which puts the 20-year-old at risk of missing the Africa Cup of Nations.
Fabregas abuse after Diao injury in Roma 1-0 Como
Como were beaten 1-0 by Roma at the Stadio Olimpico on Monday night: Wesley Franca with the only goal of the game.
On top of losing what was effectively a six-pointer in the race for Champions League football, Como have also had to deal with the loss of Diao, who pulled up and then limped off after 37 minutes at the Stadio Olimpico.
The Senegal talent had missed several months of action earlier this year due to a fractured metatarsal, and had only recently returned from a hamstring injury that ruled him out for two league matches in November.
However, he has now picked up another muscular injury, which makes his participation at the Africa Cup of Nations into major doubt.
Now, Fabregas is the target of insults from Senegal fans on social media after his decision to deploy Diao as a starter against Roma, just a few days before the Africa Cup of Nations is due to get underway.
The Spaniard has been labelled an ‘imbecile’ by some supporters, while others have used more extreme language, and others have made degrading comments about his wife under his most recent post on Instagram in the hours since Como’s 2-0 defeat against Roma.
