Robinho in doubt for AS Roma tie

0 Comments | AFP, February, 2008

MADRID (AFP) — Real Madrid's Brazilian striker Robinho is in doubt for their Champions League tie at AS Roma next week after tearing a muscle in his abdomen, the Spanish club confirmed on Monday.

"The diagnostic is a micro-tear on the right side of his abdominal muscles which should keep him off the pitch for between ten and 15 days," the Spanish champions said on their website.

Robinho picked up the injury during Real's 7-0 victory over Valladolid at the weekend.

Real Madrid play AS Roma in Italy on February 19.
