Callum Wilson was left with a tooth hanging out following a gruesome injury on his return to Newcastle United’s starting XI on Tuesday, at St. James Park. The striker played a crucial role as Newcastle sealed a 2-0 win vs Arsenal. The win further dented Arsenal’s hopes of sealing a UEFA Champions League berth. In the 27th minute, Wilson could be seen on live camera receiving treatment on the sidelines and his gums could be seen bleeding with a front tooth dislodged. Despite the injury, the Englishman returned back to the field immediately. The cause of the injury wasn’t caught on camera and it was also Wilson’s first start since suffering a calf injury which kept him in the sidelines since January.

Here are some of the photos of Wilson’s tooth injury, which fans shared on social media:

Meanwhile, Wilson himself took to Twitter to react to his tooth injury and the win.

He wrote, “How it started vs How it ended…. I’d lose a tooth every week for nights like that What an atmosphere and what a performance from everyone with 3pts to go with it!!”

With a pinch of salt, he also shared a funny video to make fun of the incident.
