Erling Haaland seen hobbling on crutches and in a protective boot after picking up injury as Pep Guardiola provides blunt update

Erling Haaland was spotted limping on crutches and wearing a protective boot in a blow to Manchester City after their FA Cup quarter-final victory at Bournemouth.

Haaland was forced off during the second half at Vitality Stadium shortly after scoring City's equaliser, having tangled with Lewis Cook, who then fell onto his ankle, and collided with the advertising hoardings surrounding the pitch.

The frontman attempted to play on after receiving treatment but immediately signalled to the bench that he could not continue after returning to the pitch.

He was replaced by Omar Marmoush, who went on to score City's winner three minutes later to set up a semi-final tie against Nottingham Forest at Wembley.
