When becoming a first team regular Matteo suffered a ligament injury to his left knee which kept him out of the season for 6 months, sustained while playing for Italy U21 team against Greece.{{cite web|url=http://www.teamtalk.com/football/story/0,16368,3033_2823605,00.html |title=Matteo Rubin suffers injury |date=October 2007|orig-year=circa|work=teamtalk.com |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105023356/http://www.teamtalk.com/football/story/0%2C16368%2C3033_2823605%2C00.html |archivedate=5 November 2007 }}
