Lucas Torreira was teased while being transported to an ambulance.
Arsenal have confirmed that their midfielder, Lucas Torreira, has a fractured right ankle fracture.
Lucas Torreira became a victim when Arsenal won the FA Cup fifth round duel at home to Portsmouth, Fratton Park on Monday (2/3/2020).
Torreira fell while receiving a hard tackle on the opposing player, James Bolton.
The tiny Uruguayan player must be pulled out using a stretcher by the medical team.
Torreira even got breathing assistance using oxygen and underwent an emergency ambulance guarding the field.
When stretched, Torreira received ridicule from supporters of Portsmouth.
"You will go home in an ambulance," cheered the opposing fan to accompany the exit of Torreira from the field.
As quoted by BolaSport.com from The Sun, the results of the condition check decided that Torreira did not need direct treatment to the hospital.
However, he must go through the day by walking using crutches.
Thursday (05/03/2020), the Arsenal confirmed the player suffered a crack in the right ankle bone due to the injury.
"Awaiting further review from a specialist who will determine the recovery plan," wrote a statement on the Arsenal website.
The Gunners have not determined the exact schedule for what Torreira will miss and when he will return.
There is concern that the London Cannon could not use up its strength when the competition entered the crucial months.
In that match, Arsenal beat Portsmouth 2-0 thanks to goals from Sokratis and Eddie Nketiah to secure a place in the quarter-finals.
Arsenal are scheduled to meet another Premier League representative, Sheffield United, in the next phase.
