Sokratis Suffers Apparent Leg Injury in FA Cup Clash vs. Manchester United

Sokratis Papastathopoulos left Arsenal's FA Cup fourth-round tie against Manchester United on Friday after just 20 minutes with what looked like a leg injury.

The centre-back went down after contesting a ball in the air with United forward Jesse Lingard. Sokratis' pained expressions told a grim story for a suspect Arsenal defence already thinned by injuries:
