Lazio's Rocchi out for six weeks

Rome Lazio striker Tommaso Rocchi will be for a minimum of six weeks following a broken leg suffered in the Olympic Games.

Rocchi suffered the injury a day ahead of Italy's opening match with Honduras, but the medical staff claimed that they were 'only' a muscle problem. In fact, the player made an appearance in the second match of the group, with South Korea, and even managed to score.

Tests in Rome on Monday pointed out that the forward really broke his right calf bone, and needs six weeks recovery time.

In the last four seasons, Rocchi only lost eight games and scored 58 goals.
