Worst fears realized: Falcao has torn ACL, set to miss World Cup.




Monaco confirmed on its official website that Colombia star Radamel “El Tigre” Falcao tore his ACL in Wednesday’s Coupe de France victory over fourth-tier Chasselay Monts d’Or Azergues, and he is likely to miss this summer’s showcase. For what it’s worth, Monaco did not provide a clear injury timeline stating that Falcao would miss the tournament. He is slated to have surgery to repair the ACL in the coming days, but with the World Cup less than five months away and ACL tears typically taking longer than that to heal, it would be nothing short of outrageous to expect a comeback that soon.


In my opinion is a bad new for the people who likes so much football, because is a very important player for his team in the way to play world football cup. Initially he can't play football during the next six months but he will try to play in the world cup with his selection, Colombia. That will be bad for Monaco, his actually club, in the fight to win the title of champion of the french league. Immediately, when the player fallen injured, much of people, football teams, important persons in the world of football and many clubs, wish him a good soon recuperation.
