Interned for ankle surgery, Felipe Melo, from Palmeiras, recorded a video with his wife, Roberta, showing optimism for the recovery. The player took a turn in the victory against Vasco by 1 to 0, yesterday, and left the field loaded.
“A lot of people say the season is over. It’s not over! Piti will be back sooner because God is good,” he said. “Wait!” Roberta completed.
The defender stressed that the injury could have been more extensive, and explained why the smile on the recording. “Many people ask why I am smiling. I am smiling because God gave me an important liberation. We don’t have to think negative things, but positive things,” he said. “If it weren’t for God, it would have been an open fracture, although the knee ligament could be gone, of minor evils. Thank goodness,” he added.
The turn should put the captain out of action for up to four months. Without the player, Palmeiras will return to the pitch on Wednesday (11), at 4:30 p.m., against Ceará, for the first match of the Brazil Cup quarterfinals.
