"He is in the hospital now," said Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino. "There is no other news at the moment."
Spurs went on to lose the game 3-0.
"Hugo Lloris' injury had massive impact on the game," Pochettino added. "It was so early in the game. To concede so early and losing our captain, it had an emotional impact on the team. We tried to find solutions, a different way to play but it was impossible. It's a very difficult moment."
