Cruzeiro coach Mano Menezes has both good and bad news ahead of the club’s next league fixture with Grêmio on Sunday at the Mineirão.
The good news is that, Leandro Damião has recovered from injury and was used in the starting XI during training by the coach. However, Damião was replaced by Júlio Baptista later on, as the striker left to take part in a session on another field. Damião hasn’t been on the pitch for Cruzeiro since their 2-1 win over Ponte Preta. Full-back Ceará should continue to be on the sidelines because of pain in his right knee, while Marquinhos is definitely out of Sunday’s game after a dislocation in his right shoulder. Marquinhos fell to the ground during ne tactical training, was in so much pain, and left the field accompanied by club doctor Sérgio Freire Júnior.
Expected Cruzeiro XI against Grêmio: Fábio; Fabiano, Manoel, Bruno Rodrigo, Fabrício; Willians, Henrique, Ariel Cabral, Allano, Willian; Leandro Damião.
