Le Mans sweat on Pele injury

Le Mans are waiting on medical results to determine the severity of Yohann Pele's injury.

Le Mans are waiting on the results of medical tests to determine the seriousness of goalkeeper Yohann Pele's foot fracture.

Pele was replaced after just 17 minutes of the disappointing 2-0 defeat to St Etienne on Saturday.

He had tried to play on after picking up the injury when conceding Gregory Cerdan's opening own goal on the three-minute mark.

Preliminary medical examinations revealed a fracture to the big toe on Pele's right foot.

The Leon-Bollee outfit are currently 11th in Ligue 1, but will now be without their young shot-stopper for the tough game against Lille at the weekend.
