Man United's injury crisis has worsened after Johnny Evans limped off early with an injury.

The former Leicester centre-back was making his first return to the Champions League in a decade against Copenhagen tonight.

With Lisandro Martinez sidelined with a lengthy injury and Raphael Varane only just coming back from injury, Evans was making his fourth start in six games across all competitions.

But, in what is a crucial match for the Red Devils to keep their Champions League dreams alive the Northern Irish international was forced off in the 16th minute of the game.
