Nuremberg (dpa / lby) – 1. FC Nuremberg has to do without offensive player Manuel Wintzheimer in the final sprint of the league before the World Cup break. The 23-year-old pulled an inner ligament on his knee during training and will be out for the time being, as the second division soccer team announced on Tuesday. The attacker will miss the three remaining games against Magdeburg, in Rostock and against Paderborn because of the injury. Wintzheimer switched from Hamburger SV to the “Club” in the summer. After ten league appearances so far, he has one goal.
