Cristiano Ronaldo will miss Saturday's Madrid Derby due to a thigh injury. |
Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo was sidelined for this weekend's La Liga match due to a muscle injury, but is expected to be fit for their return leg of Champions League semifinals.
"We trust he will be with us on Tuesday," said Real's assistant coach Aitor Karanka on Friday. He did not give details on the injury.
Ronaldo has been left out for Real's league match against crosstown club Atletico Madrid on Saturday, when their arch rivals Barcelona could clinch the title if they win over Athletic Bilbao and Real loses.
The Madrid team suffered a 4-1 loss at Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday when Ronaldo scored the only goal and is looking for an overturn in Tuesday's second leg at home.
