Another concern: John Terry was also forced off late on with a hamstring injury

Hodgson said there was a ‘distinct possibility’ Cahill had fractured his jaw and added: ‘We’re desperately hoping that the scan doesn’t show that, and it’s just going to be bruising. That would be hard enough, but it wouldn’t stop him taking part in the tournament.

‘John felt his hamstring a little bit. Again, it wasn’t a major thing when he came off, but we’ll still need to scan it just to be 100 per cent sure.’
