[Folami David]

Atletico Madrid's slim hopes of catching Spanish leader Barcelona were dealth a blow on Sunday when forward Radamale Falcao sustained a leg injury that will sideline the team's top scorer for about 3 weeks.
.
Falcao came up lame while sprinting for a ball and immediately asked to be substituted in the 57th minute of Atletico's 2-0 win over Levante. He walked off clutching the upper part of his left leg.
.
Atletico's coach Diego Simeone said the Columbia stricker will be out for '20 days'.
.
'' We don't know exactly what he has, but he is hurt. He will rest and that will serve him well '', Simeone said. 
.
'' Falcao will be a great reinforcement for us when he comes back ''.
