Ounas stayed down for some considerable time for treatment and had to be helped off the pitch.

A few hours later, when leaving the stadium, Ounas was spotted with heavy strapping to his right ankle.

However, when asked how he was, the Franco-Algerian smiled and made a thumbs-up gesture.

Ounas will still undergo tests tomorrow to rule out fractures or ligament damage, but considering the circumstances, the mood is positive he avoided anything more serious than a sprain.
