Cano returns after more than five months, ovation at the Maracanã | OneFootball

Fluminense’s 3-1 win over Corinthians marked Germán Cano’s return to the pitch after more than five months. The Argentine came on in the 41st minute of the second half to replace Martinelli and was given a standing ovation by Fluminense’s fans at the Maracanã.

Cano had not played since October 29 due to a knee problem. The striker had already been cleared by the medical department a few weeks ago, but the coaching staff believed he needed a longer period of physical preparation to handle the demands of a long and grueling season.

In this Wednesday’s match, the No. 14 stayed on the field for about ten minutes, which was enough time to get a feel for the game again and receive the affection of Fluminense’s fans.
