Frank Lampard breaks hand in Everton celebrations

Frank Lampard breaks hand in Everton celebrations

Everton manager Frank Lampard suffered a broken hand during Everton's recent victory.

The Toffees defeated Newcastle United 1-0 in a crucial Premier League fixture, with Alex Iwobi scoring in the 99th minute to win the game for his team, which led to some frantic celebrations.

"I have broken my hand by the way in the celebrations. I will take it for three points, it was in the celebrations for the goal. I did not realise at the time, but as the game carried on it was a bit sore there," Lampard told Amazon Prime.

"It is a bit shaky but it is fine. I do not care. It was an amazing night, it is important that we put perspective on it, because we need those nights and there is a long way to go."

The victory saw the club extend their gap above the relegation zone by three points, with the Toffees currently still 17th placed in the Premier League table.

Everton will be back in action on Sunday when they compete in the FA Cup quarter-finals against Crystal Palace.
