Gilberto gets through Russia game uninjured
March 2, 2006
Sambafoot have a review of the Russia vs. Brazil game here: http://www.sambafoot.com/en/news/6465_Brazil_wins_Russia_1-0_for_the_last_game_before_final_cap.html
The article notes that the game was played in MINUS SEVENTEEN degrees. I wouldn’t step outside for a million quid in that weather.
Gilberto was subbed on in the 75th minute, and finished the game. He will be fit to face Fulham on Saturday.
