The match was originally supposed to be played in June but was postponed because of heavy rain, making the surface unplayable.

Robinho to miss Games

Robinho was dropped from the Brazilian Olympic team on Monday after Real Madrid said a medical examination discovered the striker has a groin injury.

The Brazilian football confederation criticized the Spanish club and said the decision was a "disrespect to the entity, to football and to Brazilian fans."

Brazil physiotherapist Luiz Alberto Rosan said he knew of Robinho's injury but that the player would have had time to heal before the Olympic tournament.

The Spanish powerhouse said the injury was discovered when the player arrived for a medical examination and light training along with most of the club's squad.

"The best thing for the player is to complete preseason training with the squad where he will be given rehabilitation tailored to his injury and where he will be under constant supervision," the club said.

Essien staying put

Chelsea midfielder Michael Essien signed a new five-year contract through 2013, becoming the third player in the past week to extend his stay at the Premier League club.

Essien, 25, has scored 14 goals in 143 games since joining from Lyon for 24.4 million pounds ($49 million) in 2005. Financial terms of the contract weren't disclosed.

"I have not been here long, but it is clear to me that Michael Essien is one of the best midfield players in the world," Chelsea manager Luiz Felipe Scolari, who took over July 1, said on the club's Web site. "I have always admired him, and it is good news for me and for Chelsea that he signs for so long."
