Arsenal’s FA Cup victory over non-League Sutton United may have come at a cost as Alex Iwobi’s leg had to be wrapped up in a bandage after the 2-0 win.

The Nigerian winger revealed his battle wound on Snapchat with the 20-year-old posting a picture of his foot along with a bandaged emoji.

Iwobi was able to carry on after Jamie Collins’ poor challenge in the first half but he was eventually taken off in the 74th minute.

Collins escaped punishment from Premier League official Michael Oliver during the highly anticipated FA Cup fifth-round tie at Gander Green Lane.

Alexis Sanchez came off the bench to replace Iwobi much to the surprise of spectators and pundits alike.

Daily Mail Sports quoted manager Arsene Wenger to have insisted star man Sanchez was not at risk by playing on Sutton’s much-talked about plastic pitch.

‘He is a guy who has a strong body,’ said Wenger.
