Full-back Sebastian Boenisch will be unavailable to Werder Bremen for at least two weeks. In training on Sunday, following the away win at Hertha BSC Berlin in the Bundesliga, the defender suffered a muscular tear to his right thigh: “During a race for the ball I broke into a sprint and then it snapped”, explained the bitterly disappointed 21 year old about the moment when the injury occurred.

 

It is ironic that it should happen now, with his former club Schalke 04 visiting the Weser Stadium for this weekend’s top clash in the Bundesliga, that the young defender should suffer such a set-back: “I’m quite disappointed because I’d really been looking forward to this particular game for some time now”, said Boenisch.

 

Following a knee operation last autumn, Sebastian Boenisch had just battled his way back into the Werder first team after two gruelling months break, and has now made seven Bundesliga appearances for the Green-Whites – six of which in the starting eleven.
