EPL: Welbeck suffers scary injury after netting Brighton’s winner against Newcastle

Danny Welbeck’s match-winning performance for Brighton against Newcastle ended in concern as the forward was stretchered off with a back injury.

The 33-year-old opened the scoring at St James’ Park, leading the Seagulls toward back-to-back Premier League victories.

However, his day took a turn in the 77th minute after an innocuous clash with Newcastle defender Fabian Schar.
