Barcelona loses Roberto, Gomes to injury

Barcelona will be without Sergi Roberto and Andre Gomes for a significant period after the pair suffered injuries during Tuesday's Champions League draw with Olympiacos.

Roberto was removed from the contest just before halftime because of an injured hamstring that's expected to keep him out for five weeks, the Spanish side revealed Wednesday.

It's a major blow for Roberto, who had solidified his place in manager Ernesto Valverde's team after appearing in 14 of Barcelona's 15 league matches this term.

Meanwhile, Gomes picked up a thigh injury and is expected to miss three-to-four weeks. The Portuguese midfielder came on as a substitute late in the second half before suffering the injury in his right leg.

Despite the disappointing outcome of a goalless draw against an inferior team, Barcelona remains atop Group D with a three-point edge over Juventus with two matches remaining.
