LONDON: A leading brain injury charity has questioned whether protocols were followed after Manchester United defender Harry Maguire suffered a blow to the head in the opening minute of his side's Premier League victory at Fulham on Saturday (Nov 4).

Maguire went down on his haunches and looked uncomfortable after being caught on the side of the head by Rodrigo Muniz's shoulder during a challenge at Craven Cottage.

"We have come such a long way since Hugo Lloris was labelled a 'hero' for over-ruling club medics to return to the pitch after a clear concussion while playing for Spurs against Everton in 2013," Luke Griggs, Chief Executive of Headway, said. There is no suggestion that Manchester United's medical staff did anything wrong, but Griggs said the incident highlighted again the need for concussion substitutes to be adopted across the sport.
