Bitter diagnosis: With a cruciate ligament tear in his left knee, Lukas Scherff will miss Hansa Rostock for several months. This was the result of an examination that the 25-year-old underwent at the beginning of the week following persistent pain. The midfielder had already undergone successful surgery on Tuesday, the club announced on Wednesday afternoon.
Scherff, who has played for the Kogge since 2010, has made six competitive appearances so far this season. He played in the first half of the defeat against Bremen on matchday 5, but was not in the squad for the last game against Schalke.
