England midfielder Jordan Henderson sustained an injury during postgame celebrations and was stretchered off after his team's 3-2 win over Mexico in the World Cup round of 16.
Video showed Henderson fall while hopping over an advertising board as the team prepared to sing "Wonderwall" with the England fans in Mexico City, landing hard on the grass as he tried to break his fall.

England manager Thomas Tuchel confirmed after the game that Henderson had hurt his wrist.
"He's gone to hospital, it's quite a serious injury," Tuchel told reporters. "It doesn't fit with the night. I don't know if there will be a procedure."
Down to 10 men for nearly the entire second half, England held on to defeat the co-hosts at the Estadio Azteca , one of the most daunting venues in the world.
Henderson did not play in the match, but received a yellow card for his conduct on the sidelines.
