LONDON: Anthony Gordon has withdrawn from the England national camp due to an injury, that he sustained during a win over Albania in the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers. England face Latvia on Monday evening in their second World Cup qualifier.
“Anthony Gordon has withdrawn from Three Lions camp having sustained an injury during Friday night’s 2-0 win over Albania. The forward has returned to Newcastle United for further assessment,” England Football said in a statement on Sunday.
Gordon was introduced as a second-half substitute as England completed a 2-0 victory over Albania in World Cup qualifying on Friday. The 24-year-old went down in discomfort late on after he arrived at Wembley and received treatment before heading down the tunnel. “He looks injured. First of all, I thought it was his stomach, but it’s his hip and it does not look good. It’s a bit worrying, yeah.” Tuchel had said after the win. IANS
