Cruzeiro received a boost ahead of Wednesday’s Copa Libertadores quarter-final second leg against River Plate when striker Alisson was finally able to make a successful return from injury against Ponte Preta on Sunday.
Marcelo Oliveira gave Allison a thirty minute run out and the youngster came through unscathed, meaning the Raposa boss should have an extra attacking option to call upon when his team host their Argentinian rivals tomorrow evening.
