ULSTER FACE AN anxious wait for news on Tommy Bowe’s knee injury.
The winger looked to be in considerable pain when stretchered off as Ulster surrendered their 13-game winning streak against the Northampton Saints.
Coach Mark Anscombe said that Bowe may have suffered ligament damage in the collision, which happened in the closing minutes of the 10-9 Heineken Cup defeat in Ravenhill last night.
The severity of the injury, and an estimated recovery time, are expected to become clear later today as Anscombe faces the prospect of losing the Irish international for the busy Christmas period.
The Pro12 leaders have a trio of matches in the competition, including inter-provincials against Leinster and Munster later this month, before their final two Heineken Cup pool matches in mid-January.
