Strange...Steve hadnt been subbed all year...any word if its tactical, just having a bad match or injury?

 

82' Konstantinidis ices it 3-1

 

Guessing he was tired, or might have an injury--no real big mistakes, from what I've read so far.

 

3 subs, no CC. N'Kufo in for Bobic for three minutes of garbage time.

 

FT, 3-1.

 

damn, hannover have started to string some good results together. i hope the trend continues.

 

"Babe.....I got killed, babe.....I hit tree, babe..."

 

7 in 7 games I think.

Cherundolo is rated 3.5, best Bundesliga YA this weekend (Sanneh 4, Berhalter 4.5)

 

Cherundolo was the victim of a couple of nasty tackles. At some point in the first half he popped back up but hobbled for a couple of minutes. Around the 50-55 minute mark he was hustling to make a cross on offense and was slid into by the Wolfsburg defender. He stayed down for a minute, before running (visibly limiping) in order to get back. When a Wolfsberg player went down a couple of minutes later he went to the side line for treatment. Then a few minutes later (67th, I guess) he was subbed out. All in all in a pretty good game. He had a fair bit of space on the right side to push up and did pretty well with it, usually his crosses found somebody in the box.

Thanks olaf & ditch.Any word on his status today?

 

Heavy bruise at the big toe. His start in Wednesday's DFB Cup game at Bayern Munich is endangered.

Casey didn't even make the bench btw.
