Everton dressing room in shock after Andre Gomes horror injury

Cenk Tosun has revealed how Everton players felt in the aftermath of Andre Gomes' shocking injury in the 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

The Portuguese international was stretchered off with a serious injury and taken to Aintree hospital after going down under a challenge by Heung-Min Son, colliding with Serge Aurier as he fell to the ground.

The South Korean international was sent off for the incident and was in tears after the trip as players from both sides looked distraught.

Tosun was on the pitch at the time and was straight over to console his injured teammate, and later revealed the mood of the squad.

"Everybody is sad inside. Some players, they nearly cried," Tosun said after the game.

"He was in shock, his eyes were open so big. He was like crying, shouting and screaming.

"I just tried to hold him and speak to him, I tried to tell him to stay calm. We couldn’t understand him. He was the one who had got the injury."

The extent of Gomes' injury is not yet known, but an update is expected from the club in due course.
