Stoke City goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen suffered a dislocated elbow in the collision with Chelsea goalscorer Salomon Kalou.
The good news is that the injury did not need surgical intervention which gives him a good chance that he will make it in time to help the Danish in their World Cup campaign.
Manager Tony Pulis:
“If he had needed an operation, he’d have struggled to make the World Cup, but there is some encouraging news in that it was put back without the need for that,” said Pulis.
