Falcao - SOCCER News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Included in match-day squad Falcao (strain) will be a bench option versus Real Madrid on Monday.

Impact Falcao has started just twice in his 10 appearances for the club this season, so it shouldn't come as a shock to see him left on the bench again. Even with his injury concerns behind him, Falcao figures to be a relative non-factor in fantasy contests unless he can secure more frequent starts.

Training with teammates Falcao (strain) trained with his teammates ahead of Monday's match against Real Madrid, according to Raul Gonzalez of Union Rayo.

Impact Falcao has missed each of the last two matches after scoring in just his second start of the season during the Oct. 18 draw with Atletico Madrid. He'll now look to compete with Sergio Camello for a starting shot against the Champions.

Out against Sevilla Falcao will miss Saturday's trip to Sevilla, according to manager Andoni Iraola.

Scores penalty Falcao scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) in Tuesday's 1-1 tie versus Atletico Madrid.

Impact Falcao only got his second start of the season but came in the clutch by capitalizing on a late penalty to tie the game for Vallecano. The veteran Colombian has mainly been making appearances off the bench with Sergio Camello receiving most of the playing time. This may not be the last we see Falcao in the starting XI with a total of two goals on nine shots (two on target) thus far.

Finds net off bench Falcao scored one goal in 11 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 3-2 loss to Athletic Club.

Impact Falcao has started just once this season but still has more goals to his name than Sergio Camello. As Camello is likely to be more useful tactically due to his energy to contribute defensively in a stronger press, Falcao will have to keep scoring if he's to start consistently.

Comes off bench in win Falcao put two shots off target in 16 minutes of Friday's 2-0 win over Espanyol.

Impact Falcao has put in two shifts off the bench to open the season as Sergio Camello has been preferred from kickoff. Expect the two to rotate a bit as the season progresses, but if neither find the net then neither will offer much reason to be worth tracking.

Takes shot off bench in loss Falcao subbed into last week's match against Levante in the 71st minute, and he took a shot and created a chance in the 4-2 defeat.

Impact Falcao scored six goals in 22 La Liga appearances (eight starts) in his return to Spain this season, but only one of those goals came since the November international break. At 36-years-old, its hard to see the veteran striker being much more than an impact substitute in the future.

Takes four shots in loss Falcao logged four shots (one on goal) in 69 minutes of Sunday's 1-0 loss to Athletic Club.

Impact Falcao hasn't scored in five consecutive appearances as Rayo were defeated at home for the first time all season. Even for Falcao, it's hard to generate substantial value if he can't find the net. Up next is a trip to Celta Vigo, which have conceded 25 goals in 22 matches.

Takes three shots against Betis Falcao took three off-target shots and made one clearance in Sunday's 1-1 draw to Betis.

Impact Falcao co-led his side in shots, but couldn't find the back of the net -- as they settled for the home draw. The forward has five goals in the season, but the last one was in early-November, and he logged only five starts in 12 appearances. He will now look to get the nod again at Barcelona on Jan 19.
