ARJEN ROBBEN

The winger of Bayern Munich, Arjen Robben, has got injured again and would not be able to feature for his club for the next three weeks. Robben had discovered muscle injury while playing for his national side in November, but, he was expected to get fit before Bayern Munich’s last match against Borussia Dortmund. But, Robben didn’t play in that match. After the match, he disclosed that he has got rid of his muscle injury, but, he has discovered a back injury now and he might have to remain out of action for a few more days.

Talking to the reporters after the match against Borussia Dortmund, Robben said, “I have recovered from the muscle injury, but, unfortunately, I have been hit by back injury now because of which I might not be able to play any more match this year. I have been feeling a lot of pain in my back since the last three days.”

Robben has been struggling with injuries since the start of the season. He has played in only 10 matches in the ongoing season.

When asked how frustrating it is to get injured frequently, Robben said, “It’s obviously disappointing to get injured and when you get hit by back-to-back injuries, it gets even more frustrating. But, you can’t do much about it.”

When asked about the performance of the team in the match against Borussia Dortmund, Robben said, “It was certainly not our best day in the office. We should have won the match, but, we lost quite a few opportunities. Nevertheless, we are still at the top of the table which is great.”

Bayern Munich presently has 38 points in 15 matches. Bayern’s next match will be a Champions League encounter against BATE Borisov on Wednesday.
