Man Utd manager Solskjaer reveals Bailly in hospital after head clash

Manchester United defender Eric Bailly is in hospital after clashing heads with Harry Maguire in Sunday's FA Cup final loss to Chelsea.

The Ivorian was left with blood pouring from his head after the collision and had to be stretchered off.

"Eric is in hospital going through routine checks and protocols. I've not spoken to the doctor about him of course that had a big big impact on the game," manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirmed.

"Eric played very well and we conceded just after the restart which was v disappointing and Eric was a big part of us not having any chances against us."
