Bochum’s goalkeeper was struck on the head by an object apparently thrown from the stands at Union Berlin and both Bundesliga teams left the field. When the game resumed, they ran down the clock without trying to score.

Patrick Drewes was preparing to take a goalkick at 1-1 in added time when he was hit by an object with a similar size and shape to a cigarette lighter. He sat down and was given medical treatment.

The referee suspended the game and led both teams off the field.

Nearly half an hour later, the game resumed and Drewes was replaced by striker Philipp Hofmann. With about three minutes left of the game, both teams agreed to not try to score.

Players passed the ball around the field, walked and had conversations with opponents while waiting for the referee to declare the game over.Bochum coach Dieter Hecking said Drewes was being taken to hospital.

Premier League Roundup >> Premier League leader Liverpool twice came from behind with 10 men to draw with Fulham 2-2, yet dropped points for the second straight match to give hope to its title rivals.

Arsenal failed to take advantage.

A 0-0 draw at home to lowly Everton left third-placed Arsenal still six points behind Liverpool and will go down as a big opportunity missed.

Undermined by Andy Robertson’s 17th-minute red card, Liverpool did well to earn a point at Anfield — but could have pulled off an unlikely win after sustained late pressure following Diogo Jota’s equalizer in the 86th.

“I don’t think I could’ve asked for more from my players,” Liverpool manager Arne Slot said.

Fulham led for the first time after Andreas Pereira’s 11th-minute volley deflected into the net off Robertson, who was sent off six minutes later for bringing down Harry Wilson as the last man and denying a goal-scoring opportunity.

Cody Gakpo leveled just after halftime by heading in a cross from Mohamed Salah, who registered his 100th assist for Liverpool in all competitions.

Rays and Athletics make a trade >> The Athletics added another option for their refurbished rotation, acquiring Jeffrey Springs in a multiplayer trade with the Tampa Bay Rays.

The 32-year-old Springs had Tommy John surgery on April 24, 2023. He returned to Tampa Bay in July and went 2-2 with a 3.27 ERA in seven starts before he was shut down in September because of elbow fatigue.

Diggs out for season >> Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs is set for season-ending surgery on his left knee to deal with an issue that was about to sideline him for the third time in four games.

It’s the same knee that needed surgery early last season to repair a torn ACL, but the ligament is intact.

Diggs was downgraded to out for Sunday’s visit to Carolina (3-10), and the Cowboys (5-8) said the 2021 All-Pro wasn’t making the trip.

Butker back for Chiefs >> The Chiefs will have kicker Harrison Butker back after missing four games to knee surgery but will be without left tackle D.J. Humphries because of a hamstring injury when Kansas City visits Cleveland.

The Chiefs activated Butker from injured reserve and waived fellow kicker Matthew Wright on Saturday.
