BERLIN (AP) — Bochum’s goalkeeper was struck on the head by an object apparently thrown from the stands and the Bundesliga game at Union Berlin was stopped on Saturday.
Patrick Drewes was preparing to take a goalkick at 1-1 in added time when he was hit by the object. He sat down and was given medical treatment.
The referee took both teams off the field and it was not immediately clear if the game would resume.
Bochum had already made substitutions at three different points in the game, meaning it would not be possible to bring another player on to replace Drewes.
