Arsenal suffered a major injury scare as defender Gabriel limped out of Brazil’s friendly win over Senegal at the Emirates Stadium.

The 27-year-old went down just before the hour mark and received treatment to his right thigh before being substituted by manager Carlo Ancelotti.

Gabriel’s absence would be a major blow for the Gunners after a fine start to the season based on a firm defence that has conceded just five goals in 11 Premier League games.

Chelsea’s teenage winger Estevao opened the scoring for Brazil and Manchester United midfielder Casemiro added the second from a free-kick.
