Brady loses two teeth on concerning night for O’Neill

John O’Shea, Shane Long and Harry Arter all limp out of club fixtures with injuries

Ireland's Robbie Brady lost two teeth when he clashed with Gary O'Neil during Norwich City's 2-1 loss to Chelsea on Tuesday night.

Left-back Brady was forced off after the sickening collision with his Canaries team-mate, and his club are yet to reveal the full extent of the damage caused.

Alex Neil's side were dragged further into the relegation mire as goals from Kenedy and Diego Costa secured all three points for the champions at Carrow Road.

There was further concern for Ireland manager Martin O’Neill as John O’Shea limped off with a calf injury during the first half of Sunderland’s 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace.
