Ronaldo picks up calf injury
Double World Cup winner Ronaldo has picked up a calf injury that will likely see him miss the next Brazilian league match and the Brazil Cup semifinal, his Corinthians club said Thursday.
The 32-year-old Brazilian striker, who missed almost a year of action because of a serious knee injury, complained of pain in his calf during Corinthians' 2-2 Cup quarterfinal draw with Fluminense on Wednesday.
The 1994 and 2002 World Cup winner, and two-time European footballer of the year, tore his left knee tendon while playing for AC Milan in February last year.
But his return to Brazil has been triumphant, the striker having scored 10 goals in 14 games for the Sao Paolo-based club.
