Luton captain Tom Lockyer suffered worrying Wembley injury as parents rushed from stands

Luton captain Tom Lockyer was taken to hospital after picking up a worrying injury during the Championship play-off final - before his team won promotion to the Premier League.

Lockyer, who scored the winner in Luton's semi-final triumph against Sunderland, fell over while running backwards in the opening stages of Saturday's game against Coventry. A lengthy delay followed before he was stretchered off the pitch.

Lockyer, 28, was conscious as he passed through the tunnel at Wembley and received medical treatment at the stadium, with his parents rushing from the stands to see him. He'll undergo further tests but appeared to be okay as he celebrated with his family from hospital, cheering the Hatters on as they reached the Premier League after a dramatic penalty shootout.
