Leaves early with hard fall Oblak left Saturday's matchup against Athletic Club with an apparent upper body injury. Prior to departing, he had maintained a clean sheet across 69 minutes. Impact Oblak sustained a mid-air collision and landed heavily on his shoulder and head. The medical team came onto the pitch to assess the situation and determined he could not continue. After the game per Atletico Universe, Oblak posted via Instagram, "I don't remember much of the game but happy with the end result." He was replaced during the 70th by backup Ivo Grbic, who figures to hold down the fort at the keeper spot if Oblak misses any time.
