Didier Drogba had initially looked sure to miss the game after breaking his arm in a warm-up against Japan on June 4.
The Chelsea striker underwent surgery and amazingly could still take part but manager Sven-Goran Eriksson will leave a decision about Drogba’s participation until just before kick-off, leaving the opposition guessing.
Meanwhile, Ronaldo was refusing to get too excited about testing himself against one of the potential stars of this tournament.
“We know all about Drogba, he’s a great player,” said the Real Madrid ‘galactico’.
“But we can’t get preoccupied by him. We must concentrate on our team, our tactics and our ambitions.”
