Christian Eriksen leaves Old Trafford on crutches after Man United ace injured in Reading win

Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen was seen leaving Old Trafford on crutches after the midfielder went off injured in the Reds' FA Cup fourth round win over Reading on Saturday night.

Erik ten Hag's side secured their spot in the next round of the competition with a comfortable 3-1 win over the Championship outfit, with Casemiro (2) and Fred both on the scoresheet for the home side. It was another successful night for the Reds as they continue to be the only side in England still competing on all four fronts.

However, there was one negative on Saturday night as Eriksen was forced off with an ankle injury in the second half. The 30-year-old was on the wrong end of a robust tackle from Reading striker Andy Carroll and was replaced by Fred.
