First diagnosis
It will be a few days before Cristiano Ronaldo focuses on his injury issues. Right now the Portugal attacker is enjoying the greatest moment in his country’s footballing history. That would make it the greatest moment of his illustrious career too. Even if he did spend most of it on the sidelines, proudly acting as head cheerleader for Portugal boss Fernando Santos. An iconic captain’s performance.
But he will have to address the injury that ended his final prematurely.
Managing Madrid report that the Real Madrid forward has suffered a partly torn ACL. The initial medical reports by doctors in France estimate that he could be sidelined for four or five months.
What Ronaldo will miss
If this report turns out to be true then he’ll miss the UEFA Super Cup clash with Sevilla on August 9th. He’ll miss a large chunk of the La Liga season as well as the group matches of Madrid’s Champions League defence.
Ronaldo scored the winning penalty in their shoot-out victory over Atletico Madrid in May.
He was the top scorer of last year’s competition with 16 goals.
