BREAKING: Antony is carried off on a stretcher during Manchester United’s clash with Chelsea as concern is sparked over the Brazilian’s involvement in the FA Cup final
Antony has been carried off on a stretcher during the first-half of Manchester United’s final home match of the season against Chelsea on Thursday evening.
The Brazilian went down in a heap just before the half-hour mark after successfully navigating his way through a crowded Chelsea defence before being clattered in a challenge by Trevor Chalobah.
Antony hit the Old Trafford turf, momentarily rising to demand a foul before curling up and rolling around in agony as play carried on.
The ball was eventually put out of play by Aaron Wan-Bissaka to allow United’s medics to rush onto the pitch and treat the injured winger.
Marcus Rashford was substituted on as the forward’s replacement as Antony was carried down the tunnel to receiver further treatment.
