Leverkusen (AP) - Bundesliga soccer team Bayer Leverkusen has to do without regular goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky for several weeks.

The 31-year-old Finnish national goalkeeper suffered an unspecified injury to his right Achilles tendon in the 2-2 draw against FSV Mainz 05 ten days ago.

This was announced by the fifth in the Bundesliga on Monday.

At the 1-1 Leverkusens on Sunday at FC Augsburg, Hradecky was represented by Niklas Lomb, who failed when conceding.

Bayer assumes that Hradecky will be out until the end of March.

The Rhinelander have been in a negative trend for weeks because of some injured high performers.

Bayer won only two of the last nine competitive games.
