Broja had replaced goalscorer Beto in the 65th minute of the contest, with the Toffees leading 1-0.

In the 86th minute he rounded Peterborough goalkeeper Nicholas Bilokapic, only for the covering Fernandez to tackle him.

The luckless forward seemed to land awkwardly and immediately appeared to be in huge discomfort.

He subsequently received lengthy medical treatment on the pitch, banging the turf in frustration.

Broja, who was given oxygen as he was treated, was eventually stretchered off the Goodison Park pitch.
