POTCHEFSTROOM - Spain
midfielder Cesc Fabregas is prepared to have a pain-killing
injection in his sore shoulder to be available for the European
champions' World Cup semi-final against Germany on Wednesday.
"It's painful but when you are up for it it's fine," he was
quoted as saying in Monday's edition of Sport newspaper.
"I am ready to get an injection in order to play," he added.
"If (coach Vicente) Del Bosque needs me I'll be there."
Fabregas sustained the injury in Saturday's quarter-final
victory against Paraguay after coming on as a substitute shortly
after halftime to replace Fernando Torres.
He spent most of Sunday evening's training session in the
gym as a precautionary measure.
