Trabzonspor lost the final of the Turkish Cup on Wednesday night, 0-3 with Galatasaray. Denis Drăguș was introduced by coach Fatih Tekke in the 60th minute.
After the injury of a month ago, Denis Drăguș had set his goal to return to the field in the final of the Cup with Galatasaray. And before the match, he had stated that on Wednesday it would be a special day and that together with the teammates he would do everything to award his trophy.

Following an opponent's duel, Drăguș asked for medical care and left the field. Then, Ahmet Beșir, Trabzonspor's doctor, came up with details about the injury suffered: “Medical examinations and MRI detected a condition on the posterior side of the left foot. Our medical staff began treatment.”
