Dembélé injured and Paulinho scored the winning goal

CAIRO –16 September 2017-Barcelona player Ousmane Dembélé suffered a muscle injury during the Getafe match on Saturday at Coliseum Alfonso Pérez in the 4th round of La Liga.

In the 24th minute, Dembélé fell to the ground without any intervention, complaining of an injury behind the left thigh muscle. A medical device was used to help him, but to no avail.

Dembélé is the most expensive player in the history of the Catalan club after joining this summer, coming from Borussia Dortmund for €105 million ($125M).

Barcelona beat Getafe 2-1 in game week 4 of La Liga. Denis Suárez and Paulinho scored for Barcelona in the 62nd and 84th minutes. Gaku Shibasaki scored for Getafe in the 39th minute. By this result, Barcelona came in first with the full marks, 12 points from four matches.
