  • Goalkeeper was filmed screaming in agony inside the net, and was given oxygen during a lengthy pause before being stretchered off the field.
  • Lloris was replaced by Paulo Gazzaniga, and looks set to spend a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

The French international's handling had been found wanting on the goal line, allowing Neal Maupay to nod home.

The 32-year-old was caught out by a floated cross into the penalty area, and had been forced to back pedal into his own net to prevent the ball crossing the line. His elbow could be seen visibly buckling as he landed.

Lloris had been administered morphine and was taken to hospital, BT Sport reported.
