(CNN)Tottenham Hotspur’s French World Cup-winning goalkeeper Hugo Lloris was stretchered off in agony after his early blunder led to Brighton’s opener in a 3-0 win over Mauricio Pochettino’s faltering side.
Lloris failed to hold an inswinging cross from Pascal Gross, falling awkwardly backwards as Neal Maupay gave the Seagulls a third minute lead in the English Premier League match Saturday.
There was a lengthy delay as Tottenham captain was treated on the field and given morphine and oxygen before being taken to hospital.
