Manchester City fans were upset on social media after Kyle Walker was forced to leave the England vs Brazil game with a hamstring injury just 18 minutes in. The injury appeared to occur while Walker was trying to block a shot from Vinicius Jr. Despite trying to play through it, Walker eventually signaled to the bench and was substituted off for Ezri Konsa. City supporters were worried about the impact this injury could have on their upcoming Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League matches.

Some fans expressed anger and frustration on social media, calling the international friendly “meaningless” and questioning the need for players to feature in such games this late in the season. There were concerns about the severity of Walker’s injury and whether he would be available for City’s crucial matches, including the Champions League clash against Real Madrid on April 9. The general sentiment was that international friendlies in March were unnecessary and potentially harmful to the players and their club teams.

Many fans were disappointed to see Walker, who was named captain in Harry Kane’s absence, go off with an injury so early in the game. The incident highlighted the risks associated with international friendlies and raised questions about player welfare and the scheduling of matches during the crowded football calendar. City supporters will be hoping for a quick recovery for Walker and are anxious to see him back in action for the important games ahead.
