Ronaldo’s Voodoo Doll Is Working: Klose “Doubtful”.
It’s not very often that a team needs to sweat out an injury for the third-placed game, given its relative unimportance in the grand scheme and all, but there is a very real and strange situation brewing in the German camp ahead of their second straight consolation game: Miroslav Klose is hurt.
Normally this is a non-issue, but Saturday’s game may stand as one of the largest in World Cup statistical history: Klose is one goal away from Ronaldo’s record with likely one World Cup game in his career.
And when I say “likely”, I say that with as much hesitancy and respect possible. For a country like Germany to trudge a 36 year old footballer to Brazil – someone remove Ballack from earshot – seems highly unlikely, but then Klose is not just any other footballer. His year was far from scintillating and yet he still continue to score goals like they’re going out of style in the World Cup, racking up 5, 5 & 4 in the last eight years. The man’s just a World Cup machine.
And what could be his final game is in jeopardy with a back issue.
“He was hurt in an aerial duel, and we are hoping that he will be okay,” stated assistant coach Hansi Flick.
The current goal standings:
15 – Ronaldo
14 - Gerd Muller,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Miroslav Klose
It’d be a shame were he not to get another chance simply because of injury, but one can only combat that #11 voodoo doll Ronaldo’s throwing pins into back in Brazil for so long.
