Too miserable! Japan s main defender was seriously injured in his debut in the Bundesliga and experienced a testicle rupture in the quarterfinals

August 25, Bundesliga team Hoffenheim officially announced that Japan's Nakamoto Machida Hiroki suffered a torn cruciate ligament in his left knee and will undergo surgery. It is reported that he may be on standby for about 8 months.

This summer, 27-year-old Japanese international Hiroki Machida joined Bundesliga team Hoffenheim with Euro 4.5 million euros. In the first round of the Bundesliga match of Hoffenheim 2-1 Leverkusen, Hiroki Machida made a yellow foul while defending Grimaldo, and he was injured by the unbalanced Grimaldo and had no choice but to leave the field.

It is worth mentioning that in an interview with the media, Hiroki Machida revealed that he suffered a ruptured testicle in the World Cup 18 against Australia in June. At that time, he was injured in the first half of the game, but he insisted on playing for 30 minutes with an injury. It was not until the halftime break that he was so painful that he could not sit down that the coaching staff realized the seriousness and replaced him at the beginning of the second half. He then underwent an emergency surgery locally in Australia. Machida Hiroki said of the operation: "Take it out, repair it and put it back."

It is reported that after the surgery, he had 1.6 testicles left, and he only held a wedding with his wife not long ago. However, Hiroki Machida revealed that the injury will not affect childbirth.
