Danny Welbeck may be facing a long spell on the sidelines, as he picked up what seems to be an horrific ankle injury against Sporting.
The English striker was aiming to get to a cross by Stephan Lichtsteiner, but he failed to land properly to the groud, twisting his ankle while at it.
As soon as he got a hold on the ball, Sporting's goalie Renan Ribeiro urged the ref to stop this game, so that Welbeck received immediate medical attention. Reactions from Welbeck's team-mates hint that Welbeck's injury could be a serious matter.
