Dynamo Moscow sports doctor Valery Konov said on that the Washington striker’s injury Alexandra Ovechkina typical of football.
On Friday, it was learned that the Capitals captain would be out for four to six weeks with a fractured left fibula.
— It is not a supporting bone, it does not support much load, the load on it is maximum 15-20%. The only thing that hurts is when you brake or accelerate. God grant that there is no displacement.
In my 45-year career, this is the third or fourth time I have encountered such an injury, and one like Alexandre’s… It’s typical of football, where you hit your legs with boots.
Before the season started, I asked Sasha how he was going to get in shape. He replied, “Like a professional.” » Indeed, I went to Türkiye and studied there. “I didn’t expect it to start like that,” Konov said on the air of the show “Everyone for the match!”
