Injury limbo for Betis's Lembo

Real Betis Balompié defender Alejandro Lembo will be out for two months after breaking his ankle during a training session this morning.

Troublesome ankle
The Uruguayan had missed the weekend's game against Getafe CF after suffering a sprained ankle - and he damaged the same left ankle today, this time fracturing the bone. Ankle injuries have already reduced him to just two Primera División outings this season.

UEFA Cup absence
Lembo will now spend three weeks in plaster, although club doctors expect it will take a further six weeks for the 28-year-old to complete his recovery. He is certainly out of the UEFA Cup last-16 tie against FC Steaua Bucuresti and probably the remainder of the campaign.
