This didn’t look good.
Hopefully Kurt Zouma hasn’t suffered serious injury after he was stretchered off in agony during Chelsea’s clash with Manchester United.
The young defender landed awkwardly after challenging for an aerial ball and could be heard screaming after catching his foot in the turf.

56' – Kurt Zouma looks in real trouble here after falling awkwardly. The stretcher's on and he'll be replaced by Gary Cahill. #mufc
