Out 3-4 weeks with injury Falcao suffered an adductor tear and will be out for an estimated three or four weeks, Rayo announced on Monday. Impact Falcao injured his thigh in Saturday's defeat against Real Madrid, and he will be out for about a month as he recovers. This could be a huge loss for newly-promoted Rayo, who are currently flying high in sixth place in Spain. Falcao has five goals this season, scored at a rate at once every 67 minutes, and Randy Nteka will have to shoulder more of an attacking burden as the striker in Falcao's absence. The good news for the veteran is that the upcoming international break will consume a large chunk of those estimated three-to-four weeks, and he might be almost ready to return by the time La Liga starts back up again.
