The challenge left the forward writhing in agony and unable to join his team-mates in celebration.He required medical attention before limping off to make way for Jeremie Frimpong, who was himself later withdrawn after being caught by Richarlison's wayward elbow.

Medical scans are expected to confirm Liverpool's worst fears that their record signing has indeed broken his leg. But it's never a nice thing that after the goal he collided with their defender.
