JAMES McCARTHY is tonight suffering from a suspected broken leg after the player went into a last ditch tackle.

Sky Sports would not go to the replay of the incident as the injury was so severe and The reaction of the BT Pundits tells you how severe this injury is.

"Rondon has gone away in tears…"

"It's snapped it in half…"

James McCarthy was wanted by Brendan Rodgers last summer but due to niggling injuries, a deal could never been done.

Rondon, the player making the tackle was in tears after the incident as McCarthy was consoled by his teammates.

Absolutely horrible situation and we wish James all the best in his recovery.
