Kieran Trippier Injury: Suffers knock against Barcelona

Trippier suffered a knock during Newcastle United's 2-1 loss Thursday against Barcelona, according to Scott Wilson of The Northern Echo. He logged three crosses (zero accurate), three corners, four tackles (two won) and two interceptions in 76 minutes.

A knock indicates why despite Newcastle United losing 2-0, Sven Botman replaced Trippier, the Magpies' most offensive defender. Because of the undisclosed problem, his injury status is a game-time decision for Newcastle's next game, currently Sunday at AFC Bournemouth.
