Joe Ledley Denies Laughing As Seamus Coleman Received Injury Treatment

Well wishes and messages of support have been pouring in for Everton and Ireland full-back Seamus Coleman, after he suffered a devastating broken leg during the Irish's 0-0 draw with Wales, last night.

However, more controversy has stemmed from the incident, other than Neil Taylor's wrecklessly stupid excuse of a challenge, with some fans accusing Wales midfielder Joe Ledley of laughing as Coleman received treatment on the Aviva Stadium pitch.

Taylor, who was promptly sent off for his leg breaking foul, has also been accused by some outraged fans of smiling during Coleman's agony.

Following the outpouring of outrage on Twitter, the Crystal Palace midfielder took to his own account to vehemently deny the allegations.

We'll be honest, it's hard to believe that Coleman's fellow professionals would have been laughing while he lay prone on the pitch with an injury that could have easily ended or severely shortened his career.
