FRANKFURT, Germany - American midfielder Jermaine Jones is under investigation by the German soccer federation for apparently intentionally stepping on an opponent's injured foot.
Television replays showed the Schalke player stepping Borussia Moenchengladbach star Marco Reus's left foot during a break in the German Cup match Wednesday. Reus is playing with a specially designed shoe because of a broken toe, but still scored twice in Moenchengladbach's 3-1 victory.
The incident was not noticed by the referee. Jones was ejected late in the match in an unrelated incident.
