Villarreal handed a injury blow ahead of Liverpool match

As the Champions League semi-final match draws near, Villarreal confirmed the injury blow while Gerard Moreno faces a tough time getting back to fitness before taking on Liverpool.

Moreno suffered a hamstring injury and with the Reds were all set to host La Liga at Anfield. The final place is up for grabs a lot is at stake for both the teams facing Manchester City or Real Madrid in the final match. But Moreno is one of the key reinforcements in Unai Emery’s armory who took down the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich with 2-1 aggregate to be the underdogs of the tournament. Moreno’s efforts in the round-of 16-tie against Juventus played a role in the team’s journey as well thus his absence would be a huge blow to Villarreal.
