Cruzeiro women lose seven players, five starters, to injuries

Cruzeiro's women's side is dealing with seven injured players — five of them regular starters — including ACL knee injuries to defenders Tainara and Paloma Maciel, full-back Laura Felipe, midfielder Gaby Soares and forwards Millene Fernandes and Ravenna, plus forward Letícia Ferreira (shoulder).

What it means

• Seven players out, five of them starters, per club president Pedro Lourenço
• Knee (ACL) injuries: Tainara, Paloma Maciel, Laura Felipe, Gaby Soares, Millene Fernandes, Ravenna
• Letícia Ferreira out with a right acromioclavicular shoulder injury

Model read

A depleted, thin squad missing five starters — notably two centre-backs and both first-choice forwards — leaves Cruzeiro notably weaker for its upcoming Mineiro and Libertadores fixtures, with little depth to rotate.
