No break for Mokoena

12 September 2010 16:00
Portsmouth have been handed a huge boost with the news midfielder Aaron Mokoena did not suffer a broken leg against Ipswich on Saturday. The South Africa international was stretchered out of the goalless draw and taken to hospital, but scans have shown he escaped serious injury. Pompey boss Steve Cotterill said: "It's a big relief that Aaron's okay. He had a scan and has taken a bad whack on it but there's no break. "It's been hard enough to get the sort of squad we have together without losing anyone to serious injury. "It looks doubtful that Aaron will be available for Tuesday night's game at Crystal Palace, but you never know."
