LONDON (Reuters) - Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck was taken to hospital after suffering a "serious injury" in their Europa League draw against Sporting on Thursday, the club's manager Unai Emery said. He was given oxygen by medical staff before being taken off on a stretcher to a standing ovation from the home fans. We think it's a serious injury," Emery told reporters, adding that Welbeck, 27, had been taken to hospital with the club waiting to hear more on his condition. Arsenal qualified for the Europa League knockout stage after the match against Sporting ended in a 0-0 draw.
