During the 22nd day of Ligue 1 against Lyon (0-3), Evian Thonon Gaillard suffered more than just a defeat. Besides losing the match, they also had to deal with two setbacks. Firstly, the Ghanaian Jonathan Mensah received a red card, leaving the team with 10 men. Additionally, Djakaridja Koné was forced off the pitch due to injury.
Evian TG confirmed on their website that Koné, the Burkinabe midfielder, had to be substituted at halftime due to a thigh injury. The club’s medical staff is concerned that it could be a more serious muscle strain, but further examinations are required to assess the extent of the injury.
