Saves penalty before injury
Cakir (thigh) contributed four saves and saved a penalty before being forced off injured in Tuesday's 1-0 loss against Monaco, coach Okan Buruk confirmed in a press conference, according to Haberler. "Ugurcan has a strain in his upper thigh. It will be clear after the MRI tomorrow. During this process, we only had one goalkeeper left who hadn't been injured."
ANALYSIS
Cakir will undergo an MRI on Wednesday after suffering a strain to his upper thigh in Tuesday's loss against Monaco in the Champions League. The goalkeeper stopped a penalty 18 minutes earlier with his foot after a low shot in the middle of the goal from Denis Zakaria. Cakir will have more than one month to recover from the setback before the clash against Atletico on Jan. 21. That said, if the injury proves to be serious and that he needed to miss more time, Gunay Guvenc will be expected to start between the posts.
