Bentancur is 'all good' after being carried off

Bentancur has made 18 appearances for Tottenham this season

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur says he is "all good" after being taken off on a stretcher six minutes into Wednesday's Carabao Cup semi-final first-leg win against Liverpool.

The 27-year-old Uruguay international fell while unchallenged as he stretched to head a ball from a corner.

Bentancur was treated on the pitch for around nine minutes and required oxygen, before being taken to hospital for further checks.

He posted on his Instagram account in the early hours of Thursday morning, saying: "All good, guys. Thank you for the messages. Congratulations for the victory boys."

Speaking after the match, Ange Postecoglou told Sky Sports: "I don't have all the information. My understanding is he is conscious and he was conscious when he got to the dressing room. We took him to hospital to get him checked over.

"It was worrying and always a concern but from what I know hopefully he will be OK."

Spurs won the game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium 1-0 thanks to Lucas Bergvall's late strike.
