FCN: Ankle again: Concerns about Adam Markhiev

It was the only defeat in Nuremberg’s 2-0 win against Bielefeld.

FCN midfield tactician Adam Markhiev (23) had to be substituted due to injury in the 64th minute. Of all people, the club’s former professional Tim Handwerker (27) caught the Finland international on the right ankle in a duel near the halfway line.

An ankle that had caused serious problems for the Russian a few weeks ago. Coach Miroslav Klose (47) thought: “Same foot again. The ankle immediately swelled again.”

This new player (originally from Aris Limassol/Cyprus) suffered his original injury a few weeks ago during the 3-0 home defeat against Hertha BSC Berlin. After that, Markhiev could not train well for a long time and was always on the verge of the next match due to ankle problems.

That’s why he left the national team at the beginning of October, right after he scored his first international goal in the World Cup qualifier against Lithuania (2-1). Only then did the symptoms subside noticeably. Until now, against Bielefeld, old injuries have clearly reoccurred.

Now FCN has to worry about its chief strategist again.
