The 25-year-old scored Dortmund’s third goal as they opened up a 4-0 lead in the first half only to capitulate spectacularly and allow Schalke back into the game.
“Bad news everyone: Midfielder @MarioGoetze sustained partial ligament tears in his upper and lower ankle in the Bundesliga match… on Saturday,” Dortmund said on Twitter.
Goetze will miss all of fifth-placed Dortmund’s matches before the winter break begins on Dec. 20, including trips to Bayer Leverkusen in the league and Real Madrid in the Champions League, as well as a German Cup tie at Bayern Munich.
