Portugal hit by Ricardinho setback

Friday 8 January 2010

Portugal's preparations for the forthcoming UEFA European Futsal Championship have suffered a blow with the news that Ricardinho has been ruled out of the finals by a hip injury.

Replacement
The prolific SL Benfica player has failed to recover from the problem he sustained in training last month, meaning the 24-year-old is unable to join his team-mates in Hungary, where they will play Spain, the holders and Belarus in Group D. Coach Orlando Duarte is expected to call up a replacement for the tournament, which kicks off on 19 January
