Liverpool boss Matt Beard has confirmed Katie Stengel's injury "is not looking good" after the striker was forced to leave the field in the dying stages of the Reds' Continental League Cup match with West Ham.
An 87th-minute header from Hammers captain Dagny Brynjarsdottir was enough to send Liverpool out of the competition at the quarter-final stage on Wednesday night, however the result was somewhat overshadowed by the sight of Stengel going to ground after a heavy collision with goalkeeper Mackenzie Arnold.
The American received treatment before leaving the field and heading straight down the tunnel in stoppage time at Prenton Park, with Beard revealing that the club will now have to wait to find out the severity of her injury.
