Trent Alexander-Arnold sustains early injury in Los Blancos Champions League match
Trent Alexander-Arnold's first European match for the Spanish club finished prematurely as he sustained an injury only three minutes into the encounter against the French side
The 26-year-old, who joined Real Madrid from Liverpool after last campaign, was picked to start at right-back instead of his teammate
Yet, he pulled up with what appeared to be a muscle problem while sprinting for the ball
He quickly went to ground and signaled to the coaching staff before being taken off by Dani Carvajal in the opening moments
Depending on the severity of the issue, the Three Lions player could miss a comeback to Anfield, with Real Madrid scheduled to play Liverpool in the European competition on Tuesday, 4 November
This marked a further disappointment for Alexander-Arnold, who had played in just a pair of Real Madrid's initial domestic fixtures this term and was left out from the international side for recent World Cup fixtures
