Motherwell midfielder Carl McHugh suffered no damage after being knocked unconscious during Sunday’s defeat by Celtic, initial tests showed.

The Irishman was carried off on a stretcher after being knocked out cold in an aerial challenge with Odsonne Edouard.

An update on Motherwell’s Twitter account read: “Carl McHugh was released from hospital on Sunday night.

“A CT scan showed no damage to his head or neck. He will now go through the concussion protocol, automatically ruling him out of Wednesday’s game with Kilmarnock.”
