Hull City winger Sorba Thomas makes Premier League appearance a day after rollover crash | OneFootball

Sorba Thomas played for Hull City at Chelsea less than 24 hours after a rollover car crash. According to Goal.com, the Wales international came on as a second-half substitute in the Premier League match at Stamford Bridge.

On Friday morning, images spread on social media showing the 27-year-old’s grey Land Rover Defender upside down on a residential road, with doors open and glass scattered. Emergency services attended, and Thomas emerged without significant injury.

Following a thorough medical assessment, he travelled with the squad to West London and was named on the bench for the 3:00pm kick-off. Manager Sergej Jakirovic then had him available as an option.

Thomas entered in the 60th minute, replacing Elliot Stroud, marking his second Premier League outing for Hull City. The Tigers earned a 2-2 draw, coming from behind at Stamford Bridge.

His availability matters for Hull, who signed him late in the window from Stoke City for an undisclosed fee on a contract running to the summer of 2030. While the club took a cautious approach after the crash, the player’s insistence on involvement likely contributed to his inclusion.
