MADRID: Real Madrid’s Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo has suffered a left ankle sprain during last weekend’s 4-1 league win over Atletico Madrid, the Spanish club said.
Ronaldo did not train with his teammates on Tuesday after hurting himself being tackled by Atletico defender Luis Perea at the Bernabeu.
Ronaldo may be one of the biggest stars in the world of soccer (or football), but it does not mean he is any less at risk from an ankle sprain than anyone else. remember, ankle sprains are the #1 injury in sports, and extremely common in this sport as well. Running on uneven ground typically gives football athletes stronger ankles than let’s say, basketball athletes that only run on even ground.
But, considering the ground is uneven and the speed with which football athletes constantly sprint and move diagonally, ankle sprains are still very common. The best way to reduce the risk is by increasing strength and range of motion in the ankle. And the Prehab section of H.E.M. is the best way to accomplish that task.
