One of Ireland's heros from last Saturday's 30 - 22 Six Nations victory over Wales picked up an injury early on against England today.

Simon Zebo was subbed off in the 11th minute with what appeared to be a muscle injury with England leading 3 - 0 at rain-soaked Aviva Stadium.

Zebo appeared to pick up the injury as he tried to receive a hacked ball from England's Chris Ashton. He was replaced by Munster's Keith Earls.

Zebo later emerged from the medical room with strapping on his foot.
