As club football takes a break, the international friendly games have showcased a couple of great battles between big international teams. Yesterday, at Wembley Stadium, England hosted Brazil in a great game that ended in Brazil's favor. Brazil won 1-0 in England's stadium as Endrick scored late in the game. Earlier in the game, though, Kyle Walker suffered an injury and couldn't continue after the 12th minute of the match. Walker was substituted out of the game, and Manchester City fans are worried. After this week, club football and the Champions League return. Manchester City will be playing against Real Madrid in a few weeks, and City fans are worried that Walker won't be able to make it in time.

Gareth Southgate spoke after the game, and one of the questions Manchester City fans wanted to be asked was about the injury update on Kyle Walker. Southgate said, "We don’t know yet. He is feeling something, but he is not a player who is injured very often, so he’s not quite certain what it is. So it is something we have to assess in the coming days.”

Some Real Madrid fans believe this is good news and could be an advantage for their team against Man City. While some Real Madrid fans celebrated, Vinicius Jr spoke after the game and felt bad for the English right-back. Vinicius Jr praised Kyle Walker and showed respect, saying, "We [Real Madrid] want to play against the best, Kyle Walker, as I always say, he is the best defender I have ever faced and there is always a very good confrontation. He respects me a lot, and I respect him a lot. Each one of us plays for his team at the highest level."
