Trent Alexander-Arnold suffers heartbreak just minutes into Champions League debut for Real Madrid

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s Champions League debut for Real Madrid lasted just five minutes having been forced to go off injured.

The England international was handed a start by Xabi Alonso for Los Blancos’ opening league phase match at the Bernabeu on Tuesday night.

    But the right-back immediately appeared to pull a hamstring and had to be taken off.

    Dani Carvajal was brought on for the former Liverpool defender, who limped down the tunnel.

    It was a heartbreaking moment for the defender, who now faces a spell on the sidelines.

    There are some huge fixtures coming up for Real Madrid, including a possible Anfield return for Alexander-Arnold, but as of now, that could be be in doubt.

    Discussing his knock on talkSPORT commentary, broadcaster Adrian Durham said: “Well, Trent was looking up to the heavens.

    “He was just on the ball, nobody near him and he pulled up and booted the ball away and then was on the ground.

    “He was looking up to the heavens, he couldn’t believe it.

    “He’s got himself a start, a chance to prove himself and within a few minutes he’s off the pitch, injured.

    “And it did look like a hamstring injury.”

    In the game, Los Blancos were trailing at the Bernabeu as well.

    Timothy Weah put the French giants into the lead following a Mason Greenwood assist.

    The lead didn’t last long as Geoffrey Kondogbia fouled Rodrygo in the box.

    Kylian Mbappe stepped up and slammed the penalty home to restore parity.
