Javier Morales was clearly in a lot of pain when he went down after being tackled by Marco Mondaini from behind. Now, Real Salt Lake is reporting what seemed apparently on the field: Morales broke his ankle on the play.
Javier Morales Has Fractured Left Ankle, Real Salt Lake Says
Team announces preliminary diagnosis on Morales is fractured left ankle.
Replays showed Morales’ ankle being twisted in a very unnatural way and when he rolled over, his foot did not seem to be pointing straight. It will likely take Morales at least a few months to recover from the injury and it’s very possible that MLS will take the extent of his injury into account when determining how to punish Mondaini.
