Injury blow for van Nistelrooy

Holland striker Ruud van Nistelrooy may have played his last game for Hamburg after being ruled out for several weeks with a calf injury he sustained against Hannover on Saturday.

The 34-year-old tore a muscle in his left calf in the 0-0 draw in the Bundesliga and it places further question marks against his future at the Imtech Arena given his contract runs out at the end of the season.
