Bundesliga bottom SpVgg Greuther Fürth may have to do without defender Marco Meyerhöfer for a long time.
The 26-year-old injured his ankle shortly before the end of the match at Eintracht Frankfurt (0-0) and had to be carried off the field on a stretcher.
“The injury depresses the mood,” said coach Stefan Leitl after the game, without being able to give a more precise diagnosis.
Meyerhöfer had twisted his leg in a duel, and opponent Jens Petter Hauge was also shocked. The 22-year-old Norwegian burst into tears.
“Get well soon to Marco Meyerhöfer. We hope that he will soon be healthy again,” said Leitl: “At this point I would also like to thank Eintracht’s medical department again for the great support.”
