England have left Jordan Henderson in Mexico City to recover from the seemingly serious wrist injury he suffered after the triumphant victory at the Azteca Stadium. Video footage showed the Brentford captain, who was an unused substitute on the night, tumbling over an advertising hoarding after the Three Lions weathered a late Mexico onslaught to book their place in the quarter-finals. He appeared to land on his wrist and was later stretchered off and taken to hospital with what Thomas Tuchel described as a 'really bad' injury. Henderson stayed in Mexico after the rest of his team-mates returned to their plush hotel in Kansas City this morning, though it's unclear exactly what injury he suffered. Tuchel said last night of the former Liverpool captain's tumble: 'Not good, not good. Jordan just fell over and injured his wrist. It looks really bad.'Henderson's team-mates formed a protective circle around him as he received medical care and was put on gas and air while being stretchered off the pitch. Jordan Henderson suffered what appeared to be a horrific injury after England's victory over MexicoThe 36-year-old has played just six minutes of this World Cup, yet managed to pick up a yellow card against the Mexicans despite not coming onto the pitch. Captain Harry Kane told the BBC: 'Jordan just fell over there, I think he's OK, just something to do with his arm.' Jude Bellingham added: 'He's in a bit of bother, but our medical team have got everything under control.'It's probably best not to say too much when I don't really know what was going on. But everyone was there to support him, and even that was a beautiful thing to see.'Henderson was a controversial choice for Tuchel to take to this World Cup, in a move that looked to be mainly due to his off-the-field influence and leadership rather than on-the-pitch performance.Bellingham and team-mate Morgan Rogers defended their team-mate but that move was then called out as a 'PR job' by the Football Association by former England captain John Terry.Speaking on the Lions Den podcast, Bellingham said: 'Don't get us started on Hendo, we could talk about him for hours. 'He's so funny, the funniest guy in camp. He gets everyone laughing, and he gets everyone together.'Appearing on Piers Morgan Uncensored, former Chelsea defender Terry was unconvinced. He said: 'I don't think it's for them to talk about, but I felt like the FA were kind of addressing something that everyone's been talking about.'It was a bit weird.' Jude Bellingham scored twice to help England to a 3-2 win over Mexico at the Azteca Stadium
