That didn’t look particularly good! Florian Wirtz had to be replaced shortly before half-time in the cup game between Bayer Leverkusen and SC Paderborn (3-1) with great pain.
Unfortunately, the DFB star was hit on the right heel by SCP professional Filip Bilbija in the 44th minute and then had to limp off the pitch with his face distorted in pain. The 20-year-old was then accompanied into the dressing room by two team supervisors, and Jonas Hofmann came on for him shortly before half-time.
It is still completely unclear how serious Wirtz’s injury actually is and whether the superstar could possibly be out for longer. The Werkself moved into the cup quarter-finals after a 3-1 win against East Westphalia.
