The player was forced to come off against Paks but fortunately it was nothing serious
Nemanja Nikolics came on as a 55th minute substite in Sunday's 2-1 away win at Paks. The away fans may have been pleased to see their 'supersub' come on and score the winner. However, many in the ground did not realize that Filipe Oliveira had picked up an injury, which forced the manager into making the change. The midfielder came off limping raising fears that the problem could be large. It was no surprise that he was forced to come off as he received a strong kick at the start of the second half. Vidi supporters have been pleased with the form shown by the left back/right sided midfield Portuguese player. The last thing that the Vidi followers wanted to see was one of the star players picking up a bad injury heading into the winter break. Luckily the news is that there is nothing too serious to worry about. The player was taken to a local hospital, where an x-ray was taken of his right ankle, with the results showing that there was no break or serious injury. The player, who arrived on loan from Parma in the summer, is now fine and a decision will be made by Paulo Sousa on whether he can take part in the Hungarian cup match with Haladas.
