Madrid - Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo will be out of action for at least another week, the troubled Spanish giants Real Madrid said Wednesday. It means he will miss Saturday's Liga match at home to Getafe and Tuesday's Champions League clash away to AC Milan. Ronaldo, the world's most expensive player, has been out since October 10, when he badly sprained the ligaments in his right ankle playing for Portugal against Hungary. Real have struggled without him, losing at home to Milan last week and, on Tuesday, sensationally crashing 4-0 away to third division part-timers Alcorcon in the King's Cup.
