Wesley Fofana appeared to be in tears as he hobbled off the pitch
The centre-back enjoyed a dream start as he opened the scoring on 24 minutes but his night turned sour soon after.
The France international suffered an apparent knee injury that brought him to tears just 14 minutes later.
The clearly emotional 21-year-old couldn’t continue and he was ultimately replaced by Trevoh Chalobah.
Fans were clearly concerned as they flooded Twitter fearing the worst for Fofana, who also sustained a devastating leg break last year while with Leicester that kept him out for most of last season.
One fan tweeted: “Hoping Fofana’s injury is not serious. His tears isn’t a good sign.”
Another posted: “Extremely worried about Fofana. In tears and it looks like the same knee he tore before. Really hoping it’s minor.”
A third wrote: “Fofana’s injury really concerns me. His knee twists as his studs are caught in the grass. Never good.”
This supporter stated: “That Fofana injury just sucks man. A second long term injury at 21y could change his career permanently.”
