Two Colchester players were involved in a sickening clash of heads with barely a minute played in their FA Cup game against Spurs.
Alex Wynter and Tom Eastmond collided when trying to deal with a bouncing ball early in their fourth round tie with the Premier League club.
Eastmond sustained a nasty cut to his head, while Wynter was taken to hospital with suspected concussion.

Wynter received a stading ovation from supporters as he was stretchered off from the pitch, while Eastmond returned to the field after receiving treatment only to be substituted on 20 minutes.
