Ibrahima Konate pulls up with injury barely into second half vs Sparta

What Liverpool fans feared going into the Sparta Prague game happened at the start of the second half.

Ibrahima Konate appeared to pull up his hamstring as he was sprinting towards his goal.

After a short medical treatment, the French centre-back was subbed off, with Virgil van Dijk coming on for an unplanned spell on the pitch.

If Konate indeed is injured, it is a big blow ahead of the Man City game on Sunday as the Frenchman has been in outstanding form as Van Dijk's partner at centre-back.
