Overview
- The injury occurred around the 17th minute when Young Boys defender Gregory Wüthrich fell onto his leg as Tagliafico attempted a clearance in the area.
- He continued briefly but was substituted at halftime for Orel Mangala after receiving treatment for pain in his right ankle.
- Post-match, he was seen leaving with a protective boot on the injured foot, and the club arranged imaging to evaluate the issue.
- Head coach Paulo Fonseca said it will be very difficult to have him for the next match, and no formal diagnosis had been announced at the time of reporting.
- Lyon won 1–0 through an Ainsley Maitland-Niles goal, while the setback adds concern for Argentina’s preparations for 2026 following a recent dangerous neck challenge on Tagliafico and injuries to players such as Giovani Lo Celso.
