It's only been in the last few days that he's been able to train fully at the World Cup base in Dallas. Talk about timing.
Or luck.
In any case, the 31-year-old is happy about the positive development.
It has gone exactly as I had hoped. The first two days I was a little off, but since then I have been going full speed without any problems, and it feels great. It is hard to say exactly what made it turn around. I tried a few different rehabs and treatments. It may have been that I found the right place or it was just time.
Are you completely free of problems?
Yes, for the past week I haven't felt anything at all. It's very nice.
He is ready to participate in some capacity in the World Cup opener against Tunisia on Monday.
