Thomas Tuchel was left with mixed emotions after 10-man England’s heroic World Cup win against Mexico was followed by Jordan Henderson sustaining “quite a serious injury” falling over an advertising hoarding during the celebrations.<\/p>\n

The Estadio Azteca witnessed a thrilling last-16 tussle<\/a>, with the visitors making a dream start through Jude Bellingham’s quickfire brace before Julian Quinones struck and Jarell Quansah saw red.<\/p>\n

England captain Harry Kane scored a penalty and then gave away one converted by Raul Jimenez as Tuchel\u2019s 10 men dug deep to seal a chaotic 3-2 win and set up a quarter-final against Norway.<\/p>\n

The final whistle sparked wild celebrations, with players pouring onto the pitch before standing in front of their fans for a now traditional rendition of Oasis\u2019 ‘Wonderwall\u2019.<\/p>\n

But unused substitute Henderson \u2013 who was also booked on the sidelines \u2013 took a nasty fall climbing back over the advertising boards following the singalong, leaving the field on a stretcher before being taken to a hospital in Mexico City.<\/p>\n

It was later confirmed he would not return to Kansas City with the rest of the squad on Sunday evening as he continued to receive medical treatment.<\/p>\n

“He injured his wrist. He is at the moment at the hospital, so it is quite a serious injury,” said Tuchel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thomas Tuchel was left with mixed emotions after 10-man England’s heroic World Cup win against Mexico was followed…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":535513,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":["post-535512","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=535512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535512\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/535513"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=535512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=535512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=535512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
