Alex is ruled out of Tuesday night’s cup clash against FC Twente. Examination today has revealed that the Brazilian defender has strained an upper leg muscle during the league encounter against Willem II last Saturday night. SlidingAlex picked up the injury when he made a sliding in the closing stages of the game. "A scan will have to reveal the exact nature of the injury, but I am sure he will not be available for the cup tie against Twente. And he is a major doubt for this year’s final two league games against N.E.C. and once again FC Twente", announced Guus Hiddink at the De Herdgang training ground on Monday afternoon. Eric Addo seems to be the most likely player to deputize for Alex. Last Saturday he already filled in at the heart of defence for André Ooijer, who was serving a one-match suspension.
