Hazard injury fears are allayed

Belgium boss Roberto Martinez has allayed fears that Eden Hazard picked up a significant injury during against Estonia.

Hazard scored for the Belgians in an 8-1 victory but went off in the 72nd-minute following a challenge.

That led to concerns the Chelsea star could be facing a spell on the sidelines.

But former Everton manager Martinez has since been quoted as saying: “It’s not an injury. He received a blow to the ankle but he is not hurt.”

Hazard is therefore expected to be available for Chelsea’s match away to Middlesbrough on Sunday.
