Ibrahimovic's record and injury – what awaits Milan?
Guri 24 Nov 2020
Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored 9 goals in the first 6 games. The goal in 6 games in a row is a repetition of the Serie A record. Most likely, the 39-year-old Swedish striker will rest for a few weeks.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the main story of this year Serie A. The 39-year-old Swede alone managed to become a contender for the Milan championship. In the central match of the tour, Ibra scored twice for Napoli and scored nine goals in 6 games.
With this result, he repeated the result of Gabriel Batistuta (1994-1995), Christian Vieri (2002-2003) and Krzysztof Piontek (2018-2019), who, like him, also managed to score goals in a row in the first six games of Serie A.
The worse news for Milan is that at the end of the match Ibra got a leg injury. Outwardly it was very similar to a thigh muscle injury. Ibra kicked his leg while jogging when he had no contact with another player. This type of injury is often taken in this situation. If this assumption is confirmed, he will probably have to rest for 2-4 weeks.
This will be a heavy loss for Milan, as Rossoneri will have to play 9 games in the next month. Tests will determine the severity of Zlatan's injury in the coming days.
