Olly Murs gets injured in football match: 'My nose is bleeding and probably broken'

'Heart Skips A Beat' hitmaker Olly Murs has revealed that he suffered a bloody injury during a soccer match earlier this week and admitted that he thinks his nose is broken after another player struck him with his elbow. 

Murs told Britain's Daily Star newspaper that he was hit in the face during the game and it seems like quite a serious accident: "My nose is bleeding quite a lot after someone swung elbows during football. I think my nose could actually be broken, it's definitely really bad."

Tweeting about the incident last night, the heartthrob explained that Ricky Finnigan was responsible for the potentially broken nose: "Oi @rickyfinnigan my nose is bleeding now... After your swinging elbows at footy!! Think my nose is broken #YouRobinThickeWannabe."

Earlier this week, it was confirmed that Murs will play football in One Direction's Niall Horan's charity match, which is due to be held on May 26 at Leicester's King Power Stadium and will benefit the Irish Autism Action and Heart and Minds Challenge.
