A little over a week before the Astillero Classic, the Bombillo goalkeeper was taken off on a stretcher against Aucas.
As if the defeat suffered at the Gonzalo Pozo Ripalda was not a very hard blow, Emelec added another bad news in the defeat against Aucas: Pedro Ortiz was injuredone of the stars of Colombian Hernán Torres’ team. The goalkeeper, showing signs of pain, had to be taken off the field on a stretcher because he could not even walk…
Ortiz’s injury occurred midway through the second half, with Bombillo losing 3-0 to Papá in Quito. The goalkeeper came out to block a shot by Jeison Medina, but the Colombian ended up hitting him in the back, near the hip, an area that the Emelec player grabbed while being treated. In addition, his right leg got stuck in the grass.
After the first check-up by the doctors on the pitch, Torres did not delay and sent Gilmar Napa, the substitute goalkeeper, onto the pitch. With the Clásico del Astillero just over a week away, Ortiz will have to undergo the relevant tests to determine the extent of the injury and find out if he will be able to play against Barcelona at the Capwell.
