Worrying news for Portugal as Ronaldo limps out of training

The attacker has been plagued by knee and thigh problems in the build-up to the World Cup.

CRISTIANO RONALDO WAS forced to leave Portuguese training after just fifteen minutes this evening as doubts continue to grow over his level of fitness.

Wearing heavy strapping on his left knee, the attacker did some physical training but walked off as his team-mates began to work on various drills. The Real Madrid man did some stretching on his own before heading to the dugout but looked in obvious discomfort.
