Man Utd forward Matheus Cunha misses Altrincham's Christmas lights switch-on after "an accident in training", according to the event's organisers.

There are new concerns over Manchester United forward Matheus Cunha’s fitness after he missed a Christmas lights switch-on event in Altrincham due to what organisers described as "an accident in training" on Saturday.

Florida Panthers center Eetu Luostarinen suffered burns in what coach Paul Maurice called a barbecue accident, the latest strange sports injury.

The Vanderbilt Commodores mascot nearly suffered horrific injuries after an accident on an ATV before Saturday's game vs. Kentucky.

Luostarinen’s is the latest non-hockey related injuries sustained by an NHL players this week. Devils star Jack Hughes is set to miss as much as eight weeks after cutting his finger on glass in what was described as a “freak accident” while attending a team dinner.

Manchester United fans are sweating over the fitness of Matheus Cunha after a ‘training accident’ prevented him from switching on the local Christmas lights. The Red Devils are looking to extend their unbeaten run to six games on Monday night when they welcome Everton to Old Trafford.
