Ballack misses training
25/06/2006 - 16:03:29Michael Ballack sat out training this morning after picking up a minor foot injury in Germany’s 2-0 victory over Sweden.
No diagnosis has been made yet, but the 29-year-old is not expected to miss Friday’s quarter-final clash with Argentina in Berlin.
“Michael Ballack skipped today’s regeneration training due to a light foot problem,” team manager Oliver Bierhoff said. “He is currently receiving treatment.”

The Germany skipper missed his side’s opening 4-2 victory over Costa Rica with a calf sprain.
