Manchester United's ecstatic injury-time equalizer against Chelsea on Saturday night is currently being marred by an injury substitution. Raphael Varane is threatened with a longer injury break.

The 29-year-old centre-back had to be substituted for Victor Lindelöf in the 60th minute of yesterday's game after what appeared to be a tackling attempt and injured his thigh.

Varane had to hide his tears from the cameras during treatment on the pitch and subsequent substitution, surrounded by encouraging gestures from his team-mates.

Man United coach Erik ten Hag was unable to say anything specific about the injury after the game and just hopes it's not something worse. Now there is a risk that Varane could miss participation in the World Cup with the French national team.
