One of the English World Cup team’s physiotherapists has been carried off the field on a stretcher just minutes before half time after injuring himself celebrating.
Gary Lewin, a former member of Arsenal’s physio staff, appeared to pick up the injury celebrating England’s 37th minute leveller – and was even carried off on the stretcher usually reserved for his players.
