Martial leaves Wembley on crutches: Manchester United striker Anthony Martial is set to have a scan on the foot injury that forced him to leave Wembley on crutches after he played for France in their 2-0 defeat against England. French medical staff were unable to diagnose the extent of the injury in the immediate aftermath of the match, leaving United to make an assessment when their teenage striker returns to their Carrington training base on Wednesday.
There are fears that Martial may have suffered a metatarsal injury that would rule him out of action until the New Year. However, France manager Didier Deschamps has come out to try and reassure the fans that he suffered a slight knock and should be fine. "He was in quite a bit of pain after the match," he said. "He got a kick in the penalty area. I think it's just a knock rather than anything else to the top of his foot."
