Doubts over Portugal's Ronaldo as he trains apart

MARIENFELD, Germany, June 15 (Reuters) Portuguese winger Cristiano Ronaldo trained separately today, casting doubt on whether he would be fit for his country's next World Cup Group D game against Iran.

The player, who appeared upset when he was substituted during Sunday's 1-0 win over Angola and who completed just 15 minutes of training yesterday, limited his session to short runs and exercises with a physiotherapist.

Under the leadership of coach Luiz Felipe Scolari, the players have stayed focused on the games, deflecting all questions about clubs and player personalities.

Asked about the situation with Ronaldo, playmaker Luis Figo was tight-lipped.

''You will have to ask the doctor about Ronaldo. I think he's okay, he just didn't train because of a small problem,'' he said.

The squad travel to Frankfurt later today ahead of their game against Iran on Saturday.
