City defender conscious, heading to hospital after collision

Manchester City manr Pep Guardiola says Eric Garcia was taken to hospital for tests after a heavy collision with teammate Ederson Moraes during 3-0 win over Arsenal in Premier League.

Guardiola said young Spanish defender was conscious but that City was a “little bit concerned.”

“He responded quite well, but we have to wait,” Guardiola said.

Garcia was sent hard to ground by Ederson as goalkeeper came out of his penalty area to clear ball in 80th minute of game at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.

Garcia was carried off on a stretcher after nearly 10 minutes of treatment by medical staff. City players appeared concerned, with left back Benjamin Mendy putting his jersey over his face and unable to look.
