Story summary

Manchester United defender Harry Maguire suffered a serious injury just two minutes into their Premier League match against Everton on Sunday. He was hurt when he collided with Thierno Barry, an Everton striker, while both players jumped for the same ball and headed towards it. The impact caused blood to pour from Maguire's nose, but despite his injuries, he decided to continue playing. Manchester United's medical staff attended to him for several minutes before allowing him to stay on the field. This was a close call for the team, especially since they are already missing four injured players, including Amad Diallo, Carlos Baleba, Mattijs de Ligt, and Manuel Ugarte.
