Pedro Mendes misses play-offs

PedroMendesAfter two very timely appearances for the NT against Hungary and Malta, Pedro Mendes suffered a knee injury during Glasgow Ranger’s last Champions League match. He will be out for the next 2 months, missing the play-offs against Bosnia-Herzegovina. A huge blow as Pedro seemed the ideal candidate for the defensive midfield position found in the nick of time to save us from not even making the play-offs.

He got injured shortly after scoring Ranger’s first goal. He held on until half-time before being substituted. The lack of a fit Pedro Mendes was noted on the pitch as the boys from Glasgow were served a 1-4 defeat against Unirea Urziceni.

This will mean Queiroz has to resort to an already tried format. Pepe in defensive midfield and Carvalho & Alves as centre-backs. It has worked. It will work again.
