The World Cup-winning cricketer and Baharampur Trinamul Congress Lok Sabha candidate Yusuf Pathan on Saturday said that people will decide on the Man of the Match in the upcoming elections.
Uruguayan forward Edinson Cavani will not be ruled out of their World Cup quarterfinal match against France, despite suffering from swelling in his leg, their national football association (AUF) has said.
The AUF on Monday said Cavani underwent an MRI scan which confirmed he had an “oedemic injury” on the calf muscle of his left leg, but that no damage to muscle fibers was reported, Xinhua news agency reported.
Speaking about the player, the AUF commented that Edinson Cavani “continues to be in pain” but that he would undertake physical rehabilitation to control the injury’s development.
