England midfielder Jordan Henderson suffered a “really bad” wrist injury while celebrating his side’s dramatic World Cup last-16 win over Mexico, manager Thomas Tuchel said.

Henderson appeared to land awkwardly after falling from the advertising hoardings at Mexico City’s Azteca Stadium following England’s 3-2 victory and was pictured leaving the pitch on a stretcher.

The 36-year-old Brentford midfielder’s World Cup has been limited to a six-minute appearance at the end of England’s Group L win over Panama.

“Jordan [Henderson] just fell over and injured his wrist. It looks really bad,” said England manager Thomas Tuchel on BBC One after his side’s win on Monday.

“It’s a quite serious injury and it doesn’t fit to the evening that Jordan is now not with us. The doctor told me he is in hospital.”

Henderson is being accompanied by a member of England’s support staff and will not travel back with the team on Monday.

England’s next match is a quarter-final tie against Norway in Miami on Saturday 22:00 BST, which you can follow on BBC Radio 5 Live and the BBC Sport website and App.

Henderson is likely to join Reece James, who picked up a hamstring injury in England’s opening match, on the sidelines.

Jarell Quansah is unavailable after receiving a straight red card during England’s victory over Mexico.
