Assane Diao Injury: Hurt in Roma tilt

Diao had one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created before exiting Monday's match against Roma at the 37th minute due to a possible thigh injury, La Gazzetta dello Sport informed.

Diao drew his first start in a while as he recently returned from a similar problem and was pretty active, but he experienced some discomfort after a long sprint and was unable to continue. He was set to depart for AFCON after this game, but his status for the competition will hinge on the upcoming test results. Tasos Douvikas replaced him in this one, as Como started without a pure striker.
