Jordan Henderson Provides Update From Hospital Bed After Surgery on His 'Smashed' Forearm After Freak Fall

Jordan Henderson underwent successful surgery and will miss the quarter-finals after breaking his left arm in a freak fall.

  • England midfielder Jordan Henderson will miss the remainder of the World Cup following successful surgery on his left forearm, which he broke celebrating after England's 3-2 victory over Mexico.
  • The 36-year-old sustained the injury at Estadio Azteca after tumbling awkwardly while attempting to climb advertising hoardings to join fans celebrating the final whistle.
  • After surgery by 3 surgeons in Kansas City, Henderson is recovering; his father Brian revealed the injury is a "completely smashed" forearm rather than the initially reported broken wrist.
  • While ruled out for the upcoming quarter-finals, the midfielder intends to rejoin his teammates once discharged, with his father stating, "He won't be leaving his team-mates."
  • Manager Thomas Tuchel selected the 90-cap veteran for his dressing room influence, though the injury now ends his record-extending fourth World Cup appearance for the Three Lions.
