Adriano Correia sustained a tear in the adductor of his right thigh in tonight’s match against Celta. He’ll be out of action for three weeks, according to the Club’s Medical Services.

The Brazilian defender, who scored the first goal of the night, was subbed off after 38 minutes for Dani Alves.

This is the second time that Adriano hasn’t been able to finish a match this season due to injury. The first time was against Granada when he picked up a calf injury.
