Troubled joint
Rincón will miss Dynamo's final UEFA Champions League Group E game against Real Madrid CF on Wednesday as his side look to secure a first win in the section, and will also be ruled out of the second leg of the Ukrainian Cup quarter-final against FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk. "The knee has been giving me problems for a long time now," the 26-year-old said. "I think that by 5 January, when the team start preparing for the second half of the season, I will be back in the squad." Rincón has played four group-stage matches this term.
