Wordsworth Spends Night in Hospital - Ipswich Town News
Midfielder Anthony Wordsworth will be spending tonight in hospital after suffering an injury in the kidney area during the first half of Town’s 1-0 victory over Blackpool.
Wordsworth tweeted: "Looks like I’ll be watching Chops’ goal in the hospital tonight. Thank for your concerns.”
After the game manager Mick McCarthy said Wordsworth, who landed awkwardly after challenging Blackpool keeper Matt Gilks in the air, would be assessed in hospital: "He’s on gas and air in the physio’s room.
"He’s obviously in pain but he doesn’t look that way at the moment. He’ll be going off to hospital, he’s got a bang in around the kidney area in the back.
"I think he’ll be a really good player for us, Woody, and it’s a shame if the injury is going to keep him out for any length of time. But we don’t know yet. He’s going to be taken to hospital as a precaution.”
The 24-year-old subsequently tweeted a photo of himself on the way to hospital in an ambulance extolling the virtues of gas and air, later adding: "This is not the way I want to end my debut but would do it all again for three points.”
