# Wolves: Fans fume at Marcal’s fresh injury setback

**Many Wolves fans were left frustrated after Marcal picked up yet another injury during his side’s 1-0 win against Leeds United on Friday night.**

The 32-year-old made only his [second](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/121718/MatchStatistics/Mar%C3%A7al) appearance off the bench since picking up a groin injury just after Christmas which ruled him out for [11](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/marcal/verletzungen/spieler/137745) games.

However, his body could not cope with Nuno Espirito Santo’s idea of easing him gently into the action, and left the field after just [23](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/121718/MatchStatistics/Mar%C3%A7al) minutes, unable to continue.

Wolves managed to get the three points and Marcal’s setback did not affect the outcome of the proceedings – as the Black Country club moved up to [11th](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/table) place before Saturday’s games.

Despite this, supporters were not impressed with Marcal in the slightest, with plenty suggesting that he should be offloaded in the summer.
