Franco di Santo returns from Injury

Posted on February 5, 2015 by index

Argentine striker Franco di Santo made his much awaited return back from injury and he featured in the friendly against MSV Duisburg.

The match ended in a disappointing 3-1 defeat for the team struggling against relegation in the Bundesliga.

They returned to the league action on 1 February with a home match against Hertha Berlin. Head coach Viktor Skripnik has been given a huge boost with the return of Di Santo, who has scored seven goals in just 11 matches this campaign. Continue reading “Franco di Santo returns from Injury”
