Genoa, sigh of relief for Junior Messias

Genoa and its coach Alberto Gilardino can breathe a sigh of relief for Junior Messias. In fact, the Rossobl&ugrave striker, who had suffered a muscle discomfort in the final minutes of the challenge with Verona, did not suffer any injury.

According to TuttoMercatoWeb, the Brazilian winger underwent instrumental examinations earlier in the day, which revealed a simple muscle soreness. Messias will be reevaluated next week ahead of the challenge with Roma, scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 15, at Marassi.

Already; the Grifone coach, after the match with the Scaligeri, lost 2-0, had seemed optimistic about the former AC Milan player's physical condition: "I think it is just fatigue. I hope it is nothing serious".

In this start of the season, Messias has already scored three goals in the Rossobl&ugrave jersey: two in the Coppa Italia with Reggiana and one in Serie A on his debut against Inter.
