Super Eagles and Lazio midfielder Ogenyi Onazi will be out for a couple of months with broken tibia and fibula.
Onazi was brutally attacked by French midfielder Blaise Matuidi in the second half of the game and had to be stretchered of the pitch. He was rushed to a hospital where it was revealed that his tibia and fibula are broken and will keep him sidelined for a couple of months. Shockingly Matuidi received only yellow card, but raised a lot of protests from football pundits, including Diego Maradona, who called it a worse offence than Luis Suarez's bite. "One must be very impudent not to see that this is worse than what Suarez did. Where is the ball? [The tackle] is criminal," Maradona said. Onazi has not talked about the incident yet, only posted a photo of his leg taken at the hospital.
