Liverpool have been dealt a potentially massive blow ahead of the FA Cup final as key midfielder Fabinho was forced off injured against Aston Villa.
Facing Steven Gerrard's side at Villa Park on Tuesday night, the influential Brazilian limped to the sidelines in the first half and was replaced by Jordan Henderson.
The injury, which appears to be a hamstring problem, comes at a critical juncture in the season as the Reds face a season-defining run of four games across just 13 days.
Fabinho, 28, sprinted back to chase former Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho but partially pulled up and held the back of his thigh, grimacing in pain, after his efforts.
