OUAGADOUGOU, Burkina Faso (AP) — Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush sustained a knee injury while playing for Egypt in a World Cup qualifier against Burkina Faso on Tuesday.

Marmoush, who joined City from Eintracht Frankfurt in January, was hurt early in the game and was replaced before the 10-minute mark.

The 26-year-old Marmoush will be assessed by City ahead of the Premier League club’s Manchester derby on Sunday.
