France's Man United striker Martial suffers foot injury
LONDON, Nov 18 (Reuters) - France's Manchester United striker Anthony Martial left Wembley Stadium on crutches with his left foot strapped after suffering an injury in the 2-0 friendly defeat by England on Tuesday.
France coach Didier Deschamps did not reveal the extent of the injury to 19-year-old Martial, who was substituted in the 67th minute, but played down concerns it was serious.
"He was in quite a bit of pain after the match," said Deschamps. "He got a kick in the penalty area. I think it's just a knock rather than anything else to the top of his foot."
