US winger Kevin Paredes hit by another injury setback with Wolfsburg
WOLFSBURG, Germany (AP) — United States winger Kevin Paredes is facing another spell on the sidelines with a foot injury at Wolfsburg after missing almost all of last season. The German club said Tuesday that Paredes had undergone successful surgery the day before on his foot and would be out 'for the time being.' The 22-year-old Virginia-born Paredes was a rising star for Wolfsburg and the U.S. after making his national team debut in 2023 but injuries have affected his development. Paredes only played twice in the Bundesliga last season after a foot injury sidelined him for months. Wolfsburg didn't specify if his latest operation was related to that problem. ___ AP soccer: The Associated Press

Doan hits double on debut as Frankfurt cruise in German Cup
FRANKFURT, Germany: Japan winger Ritsu Doan scored twice on his debut as Eintracht Frankfurt thumped fifth-tier Engers 5-0 in the first round of the German Cup on Sunday. Doan, who joined Frankfurt from Bundesliga rivals Freiburg in the summer, scored in each half. The Japan international scored Frankfurt's second in first-half stoppage time, collecting the ball on the run and scoring past the goalkeeper in one motion. Doan got his second on 54 minutes, cutting in on his left foot to put Frankfurt 3-0 up. Jean-Matteo Bahoya, Elye Wahi and Paxten Aaronson also scored for the five-time German Cup winners. Long-time captain and goalkeeper Kevin Trapp was left out of the match-day squad "due to discussions with another club," Frankfurt said on social media. German media reported the former Paris Saint-Germain goalie is set for a move to newly-promoted Ligue 1 side Paris FC. First division sides Borussia Moenchengladbach, Cologne and Augsburg also advanced. Two-time cup winners Kaiserslautern hammered RSV Eintracht 7-0. Schalke, who are now in the second division but have won the German Cup five times, won 1-0 away at Lokomotiv Leipzig.
