The trauma of de Rossi is not serious

The trauma of the Roma midfielder Daniele de Rossi is not serious and he will be ready to return to the game via soccer-tips as early as next week.
De Rossi left the pitch in the 37th minute in the control game via soccer-tips of the national team of Italy against the Netherlands on Tuesday, as the initial concerns were that he may miss the rest of the season.
The midfielder passed a medical examination which showed slight muscle bruise on the right side in the lower back, from which he will recover in the next few days.
De Rossi almost certainly will miss the derby from the Calcio against the underdog Empoli but he will be on the line for the City derby against Lazio on April 4 in the rematch of the semi-finals of the tournament for the Cup of Italy.
