体坛英语新闻:Leverkusen's Kiessling to miss final two league matches due to injury

2014-05-01来源:Xinhuanet

BERLIN, April 28 (Xinhua) -- Bayer Leverkusen striker Stefan Kiessling will miss the last two games of the season after the Germany international tore his left hamstring.

Bayer are now holding onto fourth in the league, which carries a Champions League play-off berth, by just a point from VfL Wolfsburg.

Bayer crashed out of this season's Champions League with a 6-1 aggregate defeat at the hands of Paris St Germain in the last 16. The loss of Kiessling is a blow to their hopes under coach Sascha Lewandowski with a fortnight left in the season.

The 30-year-old suffered the injury in Leverkusen's 2-2 draw at home to second-placed Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, and the side's final two matches will be against Eintracht Frankfurt at home and away to Werder Bremen.
