Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite wept as he was carried off the pitch on a stretcher during a Premier League game against Liverpool. The centre-back appeared to have injured his hamstring towards the end of the match.<\/p>\n
At this point the score was fixed at 1-1. Mohamed Salah gave Liverpool the lead in the first half, just minutes after Iliman Ndiaye’s goal in the build-up was ruled out for offside.<\/p>\n
Beto counterattacked for Everton in the second half. The goal injured Liverpool goalkeeper Giorgi Mamadashvili, who was also stretchered off the pitch and replaced by Freddie Woodman.<\/p>\n

Brathwaite appeared to be injured while trying to protect the ball inside Everton’s penalty area. He tried to continue at first, but then grabbed his hamstring and collapsed.<\/p>\n
The defender looked emotional as medics treated him, indicating he believed it could be a season-ending injury.<\/p>\n
It could also affect the centre-back’s desire to make a belated push into Thomas Tuchel’s World Cup squad.<\/p>\n
The 23-year-old only returned from a long-term hamstring injury in January and is not expected to make his first appearance of the season until early 2026.<\/p>\n
