West Brom ace, Saloman Rondon, accidentally kicked the back of James McCarthy’s leg – leaving the Republic of Ireland international stricken on the floor. And as soon as Rondon saw what had happened to his opponent he broke down in tears, sickened at the sight. He then chased referee Stuart Attwell pleading with him to call the Everton physios onto the pitch to help comfort McCarthy. Play was held up for almost ten minutes as medics rushed to give oxygen to 27-year-old McCarthy while he lay in agony on the floor. Doctors took time to ensure his right leg was kept supported as they fitted a splint before moving him onto a stretcher.
