Hirst Reveals Damage Inflicted By Late Dragusin Challenge

Blues striker George Hirst has revealed the extent of the facial injury he suffered in the closing moments of yesterday’s 2-1 win at Tottenham Hotspur.

While his teammates celebrated at the final whistle, Hirst had been left on the ground in obvious pain by a wild Radu Dragusin aerial challenge – which might well have led to a VAR red card review had it happened earlier – and underwent lengthy treatment.

The frontman, who had come off the bench in the 70th minute, had earlier required attention for a knee problem after battling with the Romanian international defender.

 

Afterwards, manager Kieran McKenna said: “He seems OK, he’s got a big bandage on his head, he’s in good spirits. He had a knock on his knee as well, which I’m sure they’ll check out but he seems to be moving pretty well.”

Hirst revealed the extent of the damage to his left eye on Instagram this morning.
