Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho admits Victor Lindelof could be out for "some time" after his injury in the 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace.

During the end of the stalemate, he appeared to pull up with a hamstring injury but soldiered on immediately, winning the ball in stoppage time, and refusing to leave his team down to 10 men as all three substitutions had been made.

When asked if Lindelof is injured, Mourinho replied: "“I believe so. I have to believe so. I always say that this is the period of the injuries. "

"When they are not injured in the national team, they come to the clubs and they are injured in the clubs and he played against Russia three days ago or two days ago and, of course, we need him and he played and he was probably the best player of the team.

“He was a brave guy, probably punishing himself, who knows, for how long he will be out, but a fantastic example."
