Alex Iwobi injury blow for Everton after midfielder leaves FA Cup tie on a stretcher

The Nigeria international was replaced by Abdoulaye Doucoure after just 51 minutes of the tie as he was involved in a heavy tackle with United full-back Tyrell Malacia.

Captain Seamus Coleman was one of the first Everton players to respond as he quickly signalled for further help from the Toffees' medical department while comforting the midfielder who lay in agony on the turf.
