Both players were substituted in during a tense match against La Celeste but ended up sustaining injuries that may sideline them for the remainder of the World Cup.
Yeremy Pino reportedly faced a severe fall, and according to coach Luis de la Fuente, he may have a fractured collarbone. “Unfortunately, it seems to be a fractured collarbone, but we’ll confirm it after his tests tomorrow. He is in considerable pain,” the Spain coach shared after Pino was seen leaving the stadium with his arm in a sling.
Concerns are also mounting for Nico Williams, who experienced a groin issue shortly after entering the match against Uruguay. “We need to wait; he’s feeling some discomfort. It might just be fatigue or overexertion. We’ll evaluate his condition,” Luis de la Fuente said regarding the forward.

Nico Williams left the stadium limping, raising alarm bells in the Spanish media, especially since he had previously dealt with injury setbacks in the lead-up to the tournament.
In a matter of moments, La Roja may have lost two of its key attacking players. Spain will be anxiously awaiting news in the coming hours.
