Bentancur back home after concussion scare
Ange Postecoglou confirmed Rodrigo Bentancur is back home after the Tottenham Hotspur midfielder was taken from the field on a stretcher during its midweek Carabao CUp semi-final first leg win over Liverpool.
Bentancur fell to the ground unchallenged just six minutes into the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Uruguay international was treated for around nine minutes, before he was transferred to hospital for further assessment.
Postecoglou says Bentancur will now be absent for a couple of weeks while he observes concussion protocol, including this weekend's FA Cup tie against non-League Tamworth.
"Thankfully, it looks like a concussion and nothing more than that," the Australian Spurs boss said.
"Good news. He was in hospital and did all the tests to make sure everything is okay. All good. He's back home and he's fine. He is feeling good.
"Obviously, you follow the protocols now, and it's a couple of weeks where you have to make sure everything is OK."
