"Trent Alexander-Arnold was substituted just five minutes into Real Madrid's Champions League game with Marseille on Tuesday, after suffering an injury."
"The right-back went to ground two minutes earlier at the Santiago Bernabéu, holding his thigh, after a spell in possession."
""It's a really good competition [between the two players]," coach Xabi Alonso said last month. "I like having that in each position, two players who want to show what they can do. It's really good for the squad.""
Trent Alexander-Arnold was substituted five minutes into Real Madrid's Champions League match against Marseille after suffering a thigh injury. He went to ground two minutes earlier at the Santiago Bernabéu holding his thigh following a spell in possession. Club captain Dani Carvajal replaced him. Alexander-Arnold joined Madrid from Liverpool in the summer and has started three of Madrid's five games in all competitions this season, with Carvajal preferred in the other two. Coach Xabi Alonso described the rivalry between the two as a positive competition. Jude Bellingham returned to the squad after shoulder surgery in July.
