Pau Cubarsi shares shocking images after horrific injury during Barcelona's Champions League match

Images of Pau Cubarsi's horror face injury have emerged after Barcelona's Champions League clash against Red Star Belgrade.

On Wednesday night, Hansi Flick's men travelled to the Red Star Stadium to take to Serbian side Belgrade.

Barcelona were in fine form as a brace from Robert Lewandowski plus goals from Inigo Martinez, Raphinha and Fermin Lopez sealed a massive 5-2 win. Silas and Milson were the scorers for the hosts.

During the second half, Cubarsi took a boot to the face and had to be replaced in the 67th minute with Sergi Dominguez coming on in his place.

After the match, pictures of Cubarsi's horror injury were shared on social media. Barcelona boss Flick also confirmed that the 17-year-old required stitches on his face.

He said: "Cubarsi is fine, he’s been given stitches, but he’s young. When you get older it’s not good, but now it is. They gave him stitches."

Cubarsi made his first team debut under former boss Xavi back in January and went on to become the youngest defender to start in a quarter final match in the Champions League.

In May, it was confirmed that Cubarsi had signed a new deal to keep him in Catalonia until the summer of 2027.

As a result of the victory, Barcelona moved up to sixth place in the Champions League table.

Flick said: "I value what we have done and everything that we are doing. We're playing very well with the ball, but we're also creating pressure and defending very well. It wasn't easy because Red Star know how to play, and how to defend. We had a great game.

"What mattered was winning, and especially here because it's not easy to win away in Europe. So I'm very happy ... I hope we can keep this rhythm up for the whole season and stay confident."

The German continued: "It won't be easy, but we are working hard and after the international break I hope things stay like that. The team is doing very well, they're fabulous, and we need to keep competing like that."

Barcelona are back in La Liga action this weekend when they take on Real Sociedad at the Anoeta on Sunday.
