However, he limped off in the game, and was seen going down the tunnel with an ice-pack after the final whistle.

Asked about Broja, Hasenhuttl said, per the Daily Echo: "I hope so, it doesn't look too bad, hopefully.

"It will take a few days (for him to recover), I think.

"He is not allowed to play (against parent side Chelsea) on Tuesday anyway, so we're okay."

He added: "I think that he has the speed in the one against one, passing and shooting when necessary is very good, he is a threat, this is something that definitely helps out team.

"We saw two times Armando Broja starting and two times he scored. He gives us some qualities that we didn't have so far and (I'm) very happy to have him.

"Tino I'm sure will also score more in the future, he is a very talented young player and absolutely convinced with this squad we can have a lot of fun.

"It's a very young squad we have here with a lot of young players for the future, give them the time to develop and you will see that."
