A Sore End to Danny’s Day

Despite scoring the winner the afternoon ended badly for Ings.

As the striker attempted to hold off the attentions of two villains, he received a knock to the face. To make matters worse, the talisman fell awkwardly and as a result may have injured his knee.

Although, the front man didn’t appear to be at full stride as he left the pitch, he did it least do so under his own power.

Fans and player alike will desperately be hoping that this is a minor knock and not a major setback. While other players have found their scoring boots for Saints this season, Ings is still the main goal threat.

Whether he puts the ball in the net himself or creates opportunities for others to do so, the sharpshooter is one-of-a-kind within the south coast side.
