FIFA World Cup 2022: Why is Croatia's Josko Gvardiol wearing a mask?

During Croatia's World Cup run, which began with their opening match against Morocco, supporters would have noticed the star athlete's unusual facial attire. On November 10, during Leipzig's Bundesliga victory over Freiburg by a score of 3-1, Gvardiol was taken to the hospital. In the 17th minute, he collided with teammate Willi Orban and suffered a facial injury.

Since Abdou Diallo hurt his knee during warm-ups, Gvardiol started the game even though he wasn't supposed to. Gvardiol, unfortunately, suffered a facial injury, a nose, and eye injury, and left the field with a bloody nose. Later scans revealed that he had broken his nose, and with less than two weeks until Croatia's opening World Cup match, he is now required to wear a face mask.

Josko reportedly has a broken nose, according to RB Leipzig's manager. He explained the situation further and said the player's eye was swollen. He looks like a boxer, after 12 rounds against a challenging opponent.
