【Sports Now】England captain Harry Janney has been admitted to hospital with an ankle injury and is doubtful for the group game against the United States on Friday. England striker and captain Harry Kane sprained his right ankle during Monday’s group game against Iran and was admitted to hospital on Tuesday for safety reasons. Harijani was reportedly still feeling unwell on Tuesday, and team leader Schefki decided to arrange for him to go to a Doha hospital for a check-up, just in case.
The Tottenham striker was injured by the Iranian player, Punali in the second half, and was replaced by Karin Wilson in 75 minutes. He left the field with a limp after the game. He has suffered from ongoing ankle problems in the last two years, so this injury may touch on old problems, but I hope the injury is not serious.
Scheffki said Monday that he hoped Janney would be OK, saying he held on for a while after the injury before playing. It is reported that if Janney cannot be seen practicing on Wednesday and Thursday, it means he is likely to miss the game against the United States on Friday.
