A member of Spain’s OWN security team accidentally injured Alvaro Morata during the celebrations as Spain reached the final of the Euros.
It came after a pitch invader ran on the pitch to try and join in with the Spanish team’s celebrations after they beat France 2-1 in the semi-final.
A member of the team’s security moved to try and stop the pitch invader, but in doing so slipped and launching himself into a slide tackle on the former Chelsea striker.
The contact looked nasty, with Morata’s leg appearing to get stuck in the turf.
Morata appeared to be in considerable pain, and was seen hobbling about the pitch while his team-mates celebrated.
There will now be concerns that the Spain captain will miss the final on Sunday in which they will play England or Holland.

While never the most prolific forward, his selflessness has helped the likes of Lamal and Nico Williams shine.
The celebrations of captaining his side to a Euros final should have been the pinnacle of his career, but he will now be sweating over his fitness.
Earlier this week he threatened to quit playing international football, due to criticism over his performances at the Euros.
He said: “It could be [my last tournament with Spain].
“It’s a possibility that I don’t want to talk about too much, but it’s probable.”
Morata went on to explain that he prefers playing outside of Spain as he insisted there is “no respect” in his homeland
He added: “In Spain it’s hard for me to be happy.
