Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will find out on today whether his World Cup dream has been wrecked by the knee injury he suffered in England’s 2-2 draw against Ecuador.
Oxlade-Chamberlain had to come off in the 63rd minute of the friendly in Miami after being kicked by Ecuador’s Carlos Gruezo.
The Arsenal midfielder, who was playing his first match since April 20 following a groin injury, did not look in pain as he walked off the pitch, but as he exited the stadium on Wednesday night he was hobbling as a result of the blow to his right leg.
The midfielder will have a scan and England manager Roy Hodgson worries that there will be bad news ahead.
“We have our fears there might be some ligament damage,” Hodgson said.
