Goalkeeper crisis ensues as Union Berlin rule Raab out with hand injury

The 27-year-old played a crucial role in FC Union’s 1-0 win over SC Freiburg on the weekend but paid the price with an injury.

1.FC Union Berlin will have to do without the services of Matheo Raab in the coming weeks, the club confirmed this evening.

The goalkeeper sustained a hand injury just before the final whistle in yesterday’s 1-0 victory over SC Freiburg on Matchday 27.

Jan-Niklas Beste’s effort in the eleventh minute of injury time which was saved by Raab is believed to be the cause of the discomfort.

The 27-year-old played a pivotal role in securing the important away win in Breisgau with that with a superb, last-minute parry.

With Raab out and first-choice Frederik Rønnow nursing an injured foot, 32-year-old Carl Klaus could be in line to start against Bayern Munich.
