The risk of Cristiano Ronaldo 0

Posted on June 03, 2014 by admin

Cristiano Ronaldo will be able to play the World Cup. This seems to be the unanimous conclusion within the Portuguese national team , although none of them dares to ensure that will make it safe . Has an injury that forced him to stop. The past few weeks have , though not the competition ( Champions and Golden Boot ) , or his ambition allowed him to.
Beyond its problems in the thigh and calf , fear of medical services lusos is overcharging the patellar tendon. He has already played with it, but now there is fear that these games played have approached him a break. After the exertion of Lisbon, many feared had reached that point . But is not the case for now.
Resonance images you practiced on Saturday showed a shy but insufficient improvement. The tendon is very strong and it is difficult to break. Usually occurs in only players who have played repeatedly infiltrated , as happened to the other Ronaldo. No alerts and rarely there microrroturas : if it breaks, it breaks whole . Still, sources consulted by the Portuguese selection MARK dare not rule out a small – very small – break: “It would be very difficult to diagnose . It has a muscular injury that is doing well , that requires treatment and rest , something that has not been able to do the player , “they explain .
The reality is that the hard CR7 year forced him to reach Lisbon risk of severe tendinitis in the tendon and that is what forced marches are trying to avoid . Hence the mantra repeated endlessly Paulo Bento : ” We will not jeopardize anyone’s health .”
In Portugal they have not gone down well alarmist leaks ‘from Spain ‘ on the state of Cris . They understand that those same alarms should have sounded some time, but that far to meet them , CR7 risked . It is something which comprise as logical , given the importance of what the club that pays playing . Now, reject any pressure when assessing whether Ronaldo will be fit or not to compete in Brazil.
The risk is there. Cristiano wants to play it and win it all. And everyone wants to have him : his club , that’s what you pay for, and your country. But it’s not a superman. And this is what awaits all stakeholders : in Madrid fear that they dispute it all again and break in Brazil. Or, if not break , which is forced to stop after over a longer period of time, as happened to Rafa Nadal -20 days , in case of inflammation of the patellar tendon is very little, and it would be a matter more close to three months . In Portugal pray that the care you are receiving to take effect and be your best. They have it from day 16 in friendly against Germany .
He , who ultimately decides not want to miss a World Cup in his year: his second Golden Ball and The Tenth . And in the middle , the Lusitanian patrocionadores managers and friendlies in the U.S., which are starting to be clear that Ronaldo on the field , you will see very little. Rather nothing to Brazil.
Another thing are the official versions, which says Paulo Bento, etc. . But off the record explains that if tomorrow the final of Champions , CR7 play . He is now resting , something not to do in Madrid. All you have sufriéndolo takes a while and worsened in the final in Lisbon. The trial for his recovery is underway and going well. Everyone seems confident that they will be . But at what cost ?

In fact, for 18 years that there were four red and whites with the Spanish team in a major competition . It was at Euro 1996, contested by Molina , Juanma Lopez, Caminero and Kiko .
Two years later at the World Cup in France , Kiko repeat , although Aguilera sole companion.
