Tasci out for the rest of the season

Stuttgart's Serdar Tasci is sidelined for the remainder of the season after picking up an injury in their 3:2 loss against Dortmund.

The up-and-coming youngster was taken off the pitch after just 16 minutes of play on Tuesday evening after suffering what has been diagnosed as a torn thigh muscle.

After an initial check-up in the locker room, the injury was confimed by another examination. The rear of Tasci's right thigh is torn, and that means that the 21-year old central defender will definitely have to sit out the rest of the season.
