Darius Olaru avoids serious injury after heavy tackle in Nations League match
Darius Olaru, a midfielder for Union Saint-Gilloise playing for the Romanian national team, avoided a serious injury following a heavy tackle during a Nations League match against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Early in the first half, Ermin Mahmic executed a two-footed tackle on Olaru. While the incident appeared severe and forced Olaru to leave the pitch at halftime, reports indicate the damage was limited. Mahmic received a yellow card for the challenge.
Bosnia and Herzegovina went on to win the match with a 4-2 scoreline. The outcome provides relief for Olaru’s club, Union Saint-Gilloise, as the player had recently joined the Belgian side for three million euros.
