Kone update after Tamworth game abandoned

The tie was halted due to a head injury suffered by Reds midfielder Sekou Kone, inside his own box, and the youngster was taken off on a stretcher.

We can confirm Sekou is conscious, stable and communicating with United’s medical team.

He has been taken to hospital, as a precaution, for further checks.

Everybody at the club wishes him a speedy recovery.

United had taken the game to the hosts from the outset, with Zach Baumann threatening to open the scoring, from a James Scanlon backheel, and Jaydan Kamason firing against the near post, following a slightly scrappy period of play, and Kennedy Digie cleared the rebound.
