Wolves Coach, Nuno Espirito-Santos Says Patricio Will Be “Ok’ After Worrisome Head Injury

Wolves goalkeeper Rui Patricio is “conscious” and “going to be OK” after his head injury against Liverpool, says head coach Nuno Espirito Santo.

Patricio was taken off on a stretcher after a 15-minute delay following a collision with his captain Conor Coady near the end of Wolves’ 1-0 defeat.

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah had an effort ruled out for offside towards the end of the Premier League match and, as Patricio tried to prevent the Egyptian from scoring, his head collided with Coady’s knee.

The flag was not raised until after Salah had scored from an offside position, but it is unclear whether an earlier decision would have prevented the collision.

John Ruddy was brought on as a concussion substitute after the 33-year-old Portugal keeper Patricio, was treated on the pitch.

Wolves forward Raul Jimenez, in the stands at Molineux on Monday, fractured his skull against Arsenal in November.

Santo also said “He’s conscious, he’s aware and he remembers what happened.

“The assessment is positive – he’s going to be OK.”

Diogo Jota Secures Win For Liverpool In Return To The Molineux

Diogo Jota rekindled Liverpool's Premier League top-four aspirations with the winning goal on his return to Molineux in a game that ended with a worrying head injury to Wolves goalkeeper Rui Patricio.

Jota, who joined Liverpool from Wolves in September, drilled a low first-time shot under Patricio to settle a tight contest.

It was a splendid way for Portugal forward to mark his first appearance back at his former club and the win saw the Reds climb to sixth, two points behind West Ham in fifth, and five off Chelsea in fourth.

Mohamed Salah saw a late effort ruled out for offside, In a game that produced few clear-cut chances.

However, more distressing for the hosts was the sight of Patricio leaving the pitch on a stretcher after a lengthy delay following a collision with his captain Conor Coady, while trying to prevent the Egyptian from scoring.

There was a 15-minute delay until John Ruddy was brought on as a concussion substitute to replace the Portugal goalkeeper.

With the international break looming, Wolves are next in Premier League action on Monday, 5 April (20:15 BST) when they welcome West Ham to Molineux. Liverpool travel to Arsenal for their next top-flight fixture on Sunday, 4 April (16:30).
