Recovered From Injury, Marco Asensio Ready to Face Laliga Match

By db-admin

DBasia.news – Real Madrid winger Marco Asensio claimed he has recovered from a knee injury he suffered and was ready to face the intense match schedule of Laliga.

The Spanish national team player has never appeared this season after suffering an ACL injury in his left knee in the preseason last year.

The 24-year-old player underwent a successful surgery in August, but he had just returned to the training ground when the competition was suspended due to the corona virus pandemic.

Asensio, who played 44 times in 2018-2019, said he was happy to be back.

“I feel very good,” he told Realmadrid TV. “The first week felt different when I returned to the training ground, with my teammates.”

“My adaptation was good. The knee responded well and to be honest I was very good physically.”

“The wait is very long. I have worked hard and, above all, I have a lot of patience, because seeing your colleague practice every day while you are in the physiotherapy room is very painful.”

“But I am now with my colleagues on the field and that is important. The wait is worth it. “

Asensio now turns his attention to helping Madrid, who are two points behind Barcelona in the title race.

Los Blancos also had to reverse the deficit after losing 2-1 in the first leg against Manchester City in the last 16 of the Champions League.

“We really want La Liga to start again and face the games that determine the title,” said Asensio. We know they are a life or death match.”

“For each match, we must face it with full strength, and we will try to win all that is left.” he concluded.
