'I went 10 feet in the air!' - England's Anthony Gordon explains how he crashed his bike and ended up with nasty cut on his chin

European Championship

England

Switzerland

<p>The Newcastle United star <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/anthony-gordon-cuts-face-hands-knee-falling-bike-england-euro-2024-training-base/blt16dc38c5e271e59e" target="_blank">had the fall at England's Euros training base in Blankenhain on Wednesday</a> when he was on a recovery bike ride. The 23-year-old said a combination of being on his phone and having trouble breaking led to him going over his handlebars.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>He told reporters: "We went out for what was meant to be a recovery bike ride. It was a lovely day. I was going down the hill and tried to take a quick video for my family just to show them what I was doing and before I knew it I was face first into the floor. The electrics are obviously a lot faster than normal bikes and in England the front brake is on the right hand side, so I tried to press the left just to slow down, and next minute it's not slowed down it's fully come to a stop and I've gone 10 feet in the air, chin first. The worst thing about it was, because I was on my phone I actually didn't know I was falling off until I hit the floor."</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">How it started vs how it’s going… <a href="https://t.co/1VefgLYCbt">pic.twitter.com/1VefgLYCbt</a></p>— AG (@anthonygordon) <a href="https://twitter.com/anthonygordon/status/1806730641007944044?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 28, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT ANTHONY GORDON SAID

<p>The former Everton man has barely played this tournament, with England boss Gareth Southgate bringing the winger on in the 89th minute in the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/england-player-ratings-vs-slovenia-euro-2024-jude-bellingham-harry-kane/bltdf59c7aa49a6ba7f" target="_blank">0-0 draw against Slovenia</a>. He will hope to get more game time as they aim to reach the quarter-finals of Euro 2024.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Gordon's Three Lions team - who finished top of Group C with five points from a possible nine - return to action on Sunday evening when they take on Slovakia, who came third in Group E, in the last 16 of the competition.</p>
