ANTHONY GORDON took a tumble on his bike during a recovery session - and is now sporting a shiner on his chin.
The Newcastle star, 23, was pedalling away on Wednesday along with all the players who featured in the 0-0 draw with Slovenia in Cologne the night before.
But he fell off and was spotted today with a graze on his chin, nose and some red marks on his wrists and hands.
Luckily, he was wearing a helmet to avoid further damage and was not going very fast when he fell.
The ex-Everton man still took part in full training on Thursday, allaying any fears that the injuries could impact his involvement for Sunday’s last-16 clash with Slovakia.
Gordon got his first minutes at the tournament when coming on as a late sub against Slovenia.

Declan Rice and Kieran Trippier worked on individual programmes to aid their load, but are expected to play against Slovakia.
While Phil Foden is back in England having returned for the birth of his third child.

Luke Shaw still remains an unused member of the squad after being selected while still carrying an injury.
But the Manchester United star has now declared himself fit and could feature against Slovakia.
It's not known what Gareth Southgate's plans are in terms of team selection just yet with the manager still experimenting in midfield.
Southgate favoured Conor Gallagher from the off against Slovenia, taking Trent Alexander-Arnold out of midfield as a result.
But Gallagher was hooked at half-time for Kobbie Mainoo, further hinting that the England boss is yet to find the right balance in the middle of the park.
