WorldCup hopeful Ching, with 10 goals in 43 internationals, had been injuredduring the Houston Dynamo's opening home game of the new Major LeagueSoccer season on April 1 and had been told by doctors he would be outfor up to six weeks.
With the United States having to submittheir preliminary 30-man squad to FIFA on May 11, Ching, 31, had beenon the clock to prove his fitness to Bradley, whose striking optionshave also been hampered by long-term injury to Sochaux striker CharlieDavies.
Ching, though, returned to training with the Dynamo thisweek, kicking a ball for the first time and declaring himself happywith his progress.
"I'm still limited,'' Ching told the
Houston Chronicle. "I still cannot swing my left leg with too much force right now.
"We'retwo weeks out. If you said I'd be running and doing all this when Ifirst hurt it I would have been sceptical. I'm recovering pretty well.Hopefully, I can continue at this rate and I'll be back sooner than Iexpected.''
i dont want him to recover on time
