Chile goalkeeper Claudio Bravo is confident he will recover from a
knee injury in time for the World Cup.
Bravo has been ruled out for the remainder of Real Sociedad's
season after suffering ligament damage in his right knee during the
second division leader's 2-0 defeat against Cordoba on Saturday.
The Chile captain says "it could have been worse. Still, it's
not a minor injury and it needs attention and a lot of recovery
time."
Bravo, 26, says it's better not "to obsess" over the injury
after he avoided surgery. He will need at least six weeks to
recover.
Chile is in Group H, alongside European champion Spain,
Honduras and Switzerland. It opens against Honduras at Nelspruit on
June 16.
