If Sydney FC fans needed any further confirmation that Matt Jurman is as tough as they come, they got it on Saturday night.Not to be put off by a killer cut above his right eye which later required 10 stitches, a heavily bandaged Jurman got straight back into it against Adelaide United.He could never have predicted his first three touches on return to the Allianz Stadium pitch would all be headers, and all within the space of a minute.Each was toasted with a lively cheer from the Sky Blues faithful, a jaunty recognition of the hard-as-nails centre-backs bravery following a horrible head clash with Uniteds James Holland.I was like, `oh, fair enough Ill keep at it then, Jurman said.It was just a magnet to my head and I thought, `how many times is this going to happen tonight?Minutes earlier there had been concern after Jurman collided forcefully with Holland in an aerial challenge in the box during the goalless draw.As Holland went to ground, his Sydney counterpart spun away clutching at his eye and flicking blood away as it streamed down his face.The 26-year-old admitted initially freaking out a bit as the team doctor and physio rushed out to stem the flow.I thought I was going to score and then next minute I was looking at my hands and had blood everywhere, it was leaking out of my head, Jurman said.I didnt know how bad it was but to see blood coming out that quick, I thought it was quite bad.I started walking off and then realised the game wouldnt stop, so I stayed on and got treatment.But its nothing that hasnt happened before.In fact, it has happened to Jurman before.During Sydneys 2014-15 grand-final loss to Melbourne Victory, a flailing elbow from former Brisbane teammate Besart Berisha left him bandaged and needing stitches.That split was slightly lower and Jurman played much of the decider barely able to see out of one eye.It was the same stubborn will to play on that has him certain hell be fine for Wednesday nights FFA Cup final against Melbourne City.I told them I have to be ready so they better figure out something quick, he said.I think itll be fine - you stitch it up and hopefully it recovers pretty quick.

VIENNA, Austria -- Nico Rosberg says his decision to retire as world champion was not a difficult one, adding that the moment felt right.After winning the title on Sunday night, Rosberg announced his retirement on Friday ahead of the FIA prize giving gala in Vienna. The decision came as a complete surprise to the F1 media and his team Mercedes was only informed earlier this week, but Rosberg said he knew the timing was right.For me its not that difficult because it just feels right, he said. The only thing that makes it difficult is that I know that I am putting my racing family [Mercedes] into a difficult situation - thats the hardest part for me.Rosberg said he started contemplating retirement after his final victory earlier this year in Japan. The win at the famous Suzuka circuit with four rounds remaining meant the title was his to lose, with three second places and third enough to secure the championship regardless of what teammate and title rival Hamilton achieved.It was after Suzuka because in Suzuka it became my title to lose, he said. Thats when the pressure really started and I started to think about thhis, that if I do achieve my childhood dream then it would be great to end there.dddddddddddd. For sure, I put absolutely everything into it. It was very, very tough and Lewis is an amazing driver and one of the best out there and to beat him is extremely tough. The last four races, but especially the last race were unbelievable -- crazy stuff.After achieving his childhood dream, Rosberg said he did not want to put his family through that level of stress again. Its very simple, Ive achieved what I set out to do. Its unbelievable how clear it was for me, when I was six years old -- you have seen the video I shared on Facebook -- I remember that was my dream. I set out to win the world championship and that was probably inspired by my dad.Of course then it was more of a childhood thing and in later years it became more and more serious, and going for that, I am just so happy [to achieve it]. And at the same time, as I explained, it was a very tough year and I dont want to do that again. ' ' '
