Chile's Fernandes breaks leg, likely to miss finals

Fernandes scored the second goal in Dinamo's 3-0 win at NK Split in the Croatian first division before coming off injured and was due to have surgery on Wednesday night.

"Fernandes suffered a fibula injury in the match in Split and will be operated on tonight when the team return to Zagreb," the club said on their website (www.gnkdinamo.hr) without specifying how long his recovery might take.

He was certain to be included in Chile coach Jorge Sampaoli's 23-man squad for the tournament in Brazil starting on June 12. Chile face Australia, world champions Spain and the Netherlands in Group B.
