Dortmund’s Reus out until 2015

admin

Losing the 25-year-old, who missed Germany’s successful World Cup campaign with torn ligaments on his other ankle, is a major blow to Dortmund, who play Arsenal in a Champions League group game on Wednesday night.

Reus was hurt in a challenge with Paderborn’s former Dortmund player Marvin Bakalorz in a 2-2 draw between the teams on Saturday.

“It was a horrific moment,” said head coach Jürgen Klopp. “It’s a red card. A draw in Paderborn isn’t that dramatic, but the loss of Reus is harder to accept.” 

It will have done little to improve Klopp’s mood that referee Wolfgang Stark admitted after the game that he should have sent Bakalorz off.

“The way I saw it during the game, Bakalorz slid in to get the ball and he made the slightest of contacts with it before then hitting Reus,” Stark told the Bild newspaper.

“For me, it was a foul and a yellow card. When I saw the replay afterwards, I was shocked and I’ve got to say that red would have been the right decision.”

It is the fourth injury Reus has sustained in the past five months, a sequence which started with the ankle problem suffered in a friendly win over Armenia in June which ended his World Cup hopes.

The winger then suffered a similar injury after tangling with an opposing player in Germany’s narrow win over Scotland in European Championship qualifying in September, before being ruled out of the most recent international break after sustaining an ankle knock in the 1-0 win over Borussia Mönchengladbach a fortnight ago.

Losing the 25-year-old, who missed Germany’s successful World Cup campaign with torn ligaments on his other ankle, is a major blow to Dortmund, who play Arsenal in a Champions League group game on Wednesday night.

Reus was hurt in a challenge with Paderborn’s former Dortmund player Marvin Bakalorz in a 2-2 draw between the teams on Saturday.

“It was a horrific moment,” said head coach Jürgen Klopp. “It’s a red card. A draw in Paderborn isn’t that dramatic, but the loss of Reus is harder to accept.” 

It will have done little to improve Klopp’s mood that referee Wolfgang Stark admitted after the game that he should have sent Bakalorz off.

“The way I saw it during the game, Bakalorz slid in to get the ball and he made the slightest of contacts with it before then hitting Reus,” Stark told the Bild newspaper.

“For me, it was a foul and a yellow card. When I saw the replay afterwards, I was shocked and I’ve got to say that red would have been the right decision.”
