Djurgården secured the group win in the Swedish Cup after defeating BP 2-0, advancing to the playoffs. However, the victory came with a setback as forward Nino Zugelj, 25, was forced off injured during the match. Zugelj suffered an injury to the front of his thigh while running in the second half.
He expressed concern about the injury, noting it happened suddenly and that he had previously experienced a similar issue in the same leg while playing in Norway, which sidelined him for several months. Zugelj does not believe he will be ready for the upcoming cup quarterfinal in a week, stating he will await medical advice. Another player, defender Jacob Une, was also substituted after receiving treatment but later returned to play before being replaced.
It happened suddenly and I have had a similar injury in the same leg before when I played in Norway, which kept me out for several months.
I do not believe I will be ready for the cup quarterfinal in a week, but I will wait for the doctor's advice.
