"Not good, not good. Jordan just fell over and injured his wrist.
It looks really bad," said Tuchel.
Tuchel provided a further update during his post-match press conference.
"He injured his wrist, he's gone to hospital. It's quite a serious injury.
It doesn't fit with the night. I don't know if there will be a procedure," said Tuchel.
