+++ Lukimya will be out for at least two weeks: Assani Lukimya has an abdominal muscle injury. The exact nature of the problem is currently unknown. "I don't know exactly what the situation is but I know something isn't quite right," explained the 29-year-old. "I hope to be running again in two weeks and hopefully back in action within a month." The defender will certainly miss Wednesday's cup tie in Bielefeld. "I'd like to support the guys from the stands but I may need to stay in Bremen and work with the physios." +++

+++ Selke and Aycicek absent:
Focus has now switched to the DFB Cup game against Arminia Bielefeld. Levent Aycicek and Davie Selke missed training on Monday morning, as did the players suffering with long term injuries. Aycicek has knee problems whereas Selke is suffering from a cold. +++

+++ A "goal" on his 50th appearance: The official statistics may say otherwise, but Felix Kroos is claiming it. His long range effort in the 28th minute ended up in the back of the net via a sizable deflection off Wolfsburg's Vierinha. "It would have gone wide, but I'm still claiming it," said Kroos, who made his 50th Bundesliga appearance for the club yesterday. +++
