Luton Town head coach Rob Edwards is hopeful that midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga is not injured again.

The 24-year-old has been enjoying an outstanding spell of matches in recent weeks.

However, he went down at half-time of Luton's eventual 4-1 loss to Liverpool on Wednesday night.

Luton conceded four goals in the second half, when Lokonga had been subbed off.

Post-game, Edwards said: “I'm not sure if it's the same, he's just feeling it, lower hamstring, so in the end it was the right thing to do to take him out.

"He wasn't comfortable to carry on, so I really hope he's okay, and we'll have to see. Sambi has been brilliant, we're asking our lads to do a lot of work and run hard at the moment, and all the time.

“When you're playing against the best teams, playing against (Manchester) United a few days ago and now you're going up against Liverpool, the intensity in our running is high and you're always at risk then to muscle strains.

“I know there's been a lot this year, I know Liverpool have got their own injury problems as well, it's just hard to keep everyone out on the pitch all the time."
