Yoro fights back tears and goes straight down tunnel in another injury blow

  /  autty

MANCHESTER UNITED have suffered a major Europa League final blow as Leny Yoro picked up an injury.

The French centre-back covered his face with his shirt and appeared to be holding back tears as he trudged straight down the tunnel during the 2-0 defeat to West Ham today.

Yoro appeared to go down holding his foot, which he broke and needed surgery on earlier this season.

He received treatment on the pitch and was immediately subbed off for Harry Maguire after.

A physio was seen breaking the news to Amorim that Yoro could not continue and the manager put his head in his hands.

Maguire, Alejandro Garnacho and Patrick Dorgu consoled the 19-year-old as he headed to the tunnel.

The injury comes just ten days before Man Utd's blockbuster Europa League final against Tottenham on May 21.

Fans were left devastated, with one saying: "God no please, this is not happening. Yoro injured."

Another added: "End the season now."

More wrote: "Yoro hurting the same foot that he missed three months with earlier in the season is pretty much the worst case scenario from this game."

A fourth commented: "I actually cba with football if he’s injured."

On Yoro's injury, Amorim said: "We hope it's nothing serious. We will assess the player but I think it is a small thing."

The manager added: "We need to change things. Only us can change things. We are missing that feeling of urgency and it's something which is hard to explain.

"Everybody is focused on the final. The final is not the biggest thing in our football club. We need to change a lot of things.

"If we don't change the way we play and perform and feel this urgency of winning every game, we should not play in the Champions League.

"We should just stay in the Premier League and learn how to be competitive one week at a time.

"The biggest focus on our football club is to change a lot of things. It's not just the final."

But it was not just United who suffered an injury blow ahead of the final as Spurs star Dejan Kulusevski picked up a problem in their 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace and was subbed off.
