Raul goes further — and higher to succeed

RAUL GONZALEZ’S ice-cold precision on the soccer field is no fluke.

The Real Madrid striker is bathing in ice and sleeping in high-altitude conditions, and he’s off to his best start in nearly a decade with eight goals in 14 Spanish league matches.

“I’ve done it because of the love I have for this team and this club, and I have never thought about how it could hurt me,” Raul said yesterday about his ice baths, which can last up to 10 minutes.
