Soccer: Knights' injury woes escalate

The New Zealand Knights' goalscoring woes continued yesterday with news that striker Dani Rodrigues is likely to be out for the rest of their A-League soccer campaign.

Rodrigues' season started late because of injury and he played just four matches before being ruled out of the 3-0 away defeat to the Newcastle Jets last weekend.

Manager Paul Nevin said more tests had showed the Portuguese player's knee problem, which he struggled with for three weeks, was more serious than first thought.
