Burkardt fails: Mainz 05 is worried about DFB Cup against Bavaria!

Mainz, Deutschland - Mainz 05 has suffered a heavy setback! In the gripping home game against Borussia Mönchengladbach, star striker Jonathan Burkardt was injured on the rear thigh and had to be replaced in the first half. The 24-year-old, who has just been chosen as a international, will "fail for the time being," as the club announced on Saturday. The exact severity of his injury will only clarify in the coming weeks.

The message for fans is particularly bitter, since Burkardt will definitely be missing in the next important DFB Cup game against FC Bayern Munich next Wednesday (kick-off 8:45 p.m.). This is a bitter loss for Mainz 05, and the team faces the challenge without having to compete. More Details on this incident are on www.main-spitze.de to read.
