Alex Scott's first start for England might have been a costly one, given reports the Bournemouth ace is expected to be out for up to two months with an injury. The midfielder dazzled in the centre of the park for the Three Lions during their 7-0 win over Croatia on Saturday evening.
Playing through the pain
Scott was bossing it in the middle of the park alongside Elliot Anderson, but the Cherries ace's showing was made even more impressive by the fact he was carrying a knock heading into the contest. Thomas Tuchel was assured the issue wasn't serious, but that appears to have come back to haunt him now, given Scott has made things much worse.
Costly decision
The injury means the Premier League star is now facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines, a significant blow for both club and country. The news comes as a major setback for Bournemouth, who will be without their key midfielder for a considerable period.
