James Ball suffered a suspected dislocated wrist during Swindon Town’s home defeat by Crewe Alexandra.

Ball left the County Ground in an ambulance at the end of the game, with his left arm in a brace, following an incident early in the second half on Saturday (February 21).

The defender landed awkwardly after challenging for the ball in the area, and immediately looked in distress.

He was quickly taken from the field of play and attended to by Swindon’s medical staff, with the ambulance subsequently being summoned.
