APOEL test
The 18-year-old German youth international suffered a hip injury only two minutes after coming on as a second-half substitute for Torben Marx in Hertha's 3-0 defeat at FC Bayern München on Saturday. Boateng will almost certainly miss both legs of Hertha's UEFA Cup first-round tie against APOEL FC.
