Mount's Champions League debut lasted just nine minutes for Chelsea after an
ugly challenge by Valencia's Francis Coquelin.
The 20-year-old midfielder injured his ankle after a high tackle by the
former Arsenal player, who received a yellow card by referee Cuneyt Cakir.
Mount, who has established himself in the first team under Frank Lampard
since a loan spell with Derby last season, got extensive treatment on the
pitch before being replaced by Spanish winger Pedro.
He received a standing ovation as he limped off at Stamford Bridge.
It will be a concern for Lampard who will be hoping Mount's injury is not
too serious ahead of Sunday's visit by Liverpool in the Premier League, live
