Frank Lampard breaks his hand celebrating Everton’s winner against Newcastle

Frank Lampard has revealed he broke his hand while celebrating Everton’s late winning goal in Thursday evening’s massive Premier League clash against Newcastle United.

The Toffees have been on a horrible run of form recently and looked short on ideas for much of the match at Goodison Park – which was interrupted for a lengthy period of time after a protestor tied himself to the goalpost.

As he joined the Amazon Prime Video punditry team after the game, he put out his hand and revealed: ‘I’ve broken my hand by the way in the celebrations. I’ve got the shakes!

Asked if he cares about his hand after securing three points, he continued: ‘No, don’t care. It was an amazing night and it’s important we put perspective on it because we need those nights but there’s a
