The problems continue for the French striker after he has been injured more this season.
Started by Zeljko Kopic, he suffered a stupid injury in the 38th minute, after sending a shot over the goal of the Lithuanian Gertmonas.
Shot for Dinamo! Mamadou Karamoko was injured again
Extremely unstable due to medical problems, Karamoko he was not part of the squad for the matches with Metalul Buzău (Romanian Cup), CFR Cluj (regular season), Rapid (play-off) and Universitatea Craiova (play-off).
He returned to the field in the away match against FC Argeș, when he entered the second half, and played 90 minutes in the away match from Cluj.
Started again by Kopic, Karamoko got injured without being fouled by anyone. In the 38th minute, he sent a shot from the edge of the box over the goal of the “students”, and later he lay down on the lawn and complained of muscle problems.
He signaled that he could no longer continue the game and was immediately replaced by Danny Armstrong in the left lane.
Karamoko's medical problems are not new. This season, the Frenchman “broke” several times in certain key moments. Even so, in 27 matches (including the one with U Cluj) he scored 6 goals and provided a decisive assist, being the top scorer for the “dogs”.
He is quoted by the specialized website Transfermarkt at 550,000 euros, being used most of the time in the forward position, in the absence of solutions.
Karamoko's problem also comes in the context in which Dinamo has the most important match of the season on Thursday, the semi-final of the Romanian Cup with Craiova University. Whether it will be redone by then remains to be seen, but the chances are slim.
