More injury woes for Barcelona as Eric Garcia taken off in Granada

The defender came off in the second half after an encouraging performance

More bad news in the form of injuries for Xavi Hernandez. How bad is Barcelona's luck this season?

Eric Garcia is the latest player to be substituted with what appeared to be a hamstring problem. The defender was forced off in the second half of Saturday's 1-1 draw at Granada.

With Ronald Araujo out of action with a broken bone in his hand, which required surgery, Garcia started alongside Pique this weekend, but he now looks set for a time out next week.

Barça face Real Madrid in the semifinal of the Spanish Supercopa on Wednesday, with Clement Lenglet likely to come in alongside Pique -- he replaced Garcia at Granada.

Garcia will now have to go further tests to see how long he is sidelined.
