📸 Mexico’s national team send message to Malagón

This afternoon, the severity of Luis Ángel Malagón's injury was confirmed: a ruptured Achilles tendon, which will keep him off the field for at least six months.

With the imminent absence of the Americanista goalkeeper from the Mexican national team's World Cup squad, the national team's social media sent a message of strength to the player.

"Ángel, you have the full support of the Unconditionals and all of us in the Mexican National Team. We sincerely wish you a speedy recovery," they posted.

Likewise, Malagón thanked the fans for their support, although he is saddened because "the dream seems to be slipping away."

"There are moments in life that are hard to understand... I want to thank everyone, my teammates for their words and prayers, especially my family for never abandoning me."

"Wounded and sad with my soul in pieces... Trying to understand the situation and asking why? That dream seems to be slipping away but I know God will give me the answer someday," he wrote.

Mala did not finish the match between América and Philadelphia Union in the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16, following severe ankle pain after a ball clearance.
