Porto midfielder Fredrik Soderstrom has questioned the physical stamina of Luis Figo after the Real Madrid star hobbled out of Tuesday night's game after 16 minutes following a collision between the two.

Real Madrid won the scrappy game thanks to a late goal from substitute Santiago Solari but Porto showed that they are capable of disturbing Vicente Del Bosque's expensively-assembled side.

And Soderstrom, who started the game marking Figo, said after the game that he was disappointed with the star-studded Real side.

“They were a bit disappointing and I think I expected a bit more from them.”

The Swede, who is hoping to make Tommy Soderberg and Lars Lagerback's squad for this summer's World Cup, added that Figo had not been able to cope with him.

“He couldn't handle a tackle with Swedish steel,” he said.

“We went for a tackle but their was nothing wrong with it. I didn't get booked or anything. I just think he got stuck in the grass,” he added.

Figo has sustained and ankle injury and is expected to be out of action for two weeks. He is now in danger of missing the Copa del Rey final against Deportivo La Coruna on March 6.

The Portuguese super star was replaced my Steve McManaman but Soderstrom managed to contain the English winger and was satisfied with his performance against the two super stars.

He told Aftonbladet: “I am very pleased with my performance. It is a good feeling to be able to prove that you have what it takes to play against the world stars of the game.”

Real Madrid are top of the group with nine points while the defeat leaves Porto rock-bottom with one point. Soderstrom, however, believes that Porto can beat the Spaniards at home and overtake Panathinaikos in second place to qualify for the quarter-finals.

He said: “Deco hit the post for us and Silva hit the bar which makes it very hard to take the defeat. But it we play like this in our home game against Real we will definitely win.”



FIGO SUCKS! LOL
