But in the 68th minute, Jenkinson was left writhing in agony after he stuck his leg out to try and stop a Millwall winger in the build-up to the visitors' second goal.
According to From Bromley with Love reporter Peter Etherington, Jenkinson hit the deck following the collision and stayed there.
While on the floor, he was seen waving to the bench for medical help.
He was then treated with gas before being stretchered off the field.
The horrifying incident caused a lengthy delay in the match.

Jubilant scenes as Lionesses keep Euros dream alive with second-half equaliser
Arsenal striker Alessia Russo rose highest to divert Chloe Kelly's cross past Cata Coll in the Spanish goal in the 57th minute – sending Lionesses supporters into raptures. England fans had watched on nervously as they once again found themselves behind in a crucial Euros tie. Fans draped in England flags joined the Prince of Wales and his daughter Princess Charlotte in holding their heads in their hands as Mariona Caldentey put Spain 1-0 up in the final on Sunday. A nervous atmosphere transformed into a jubilant one at Boxpark Croydon as Russo's header found the net, with England flags being waved and supporters hugging each other during the celebrations. At the final whistle, fans of the Lionesses appeared confident as they started dancing and cheering as the match went into extra time. William and Charlotte were pictured in Switzerland for the Euros final as the royal family led the nation in wishing good luck to England's Lionesses. Shortly before kick-off, an image of the pair was posted on the Prince and Princess of Wales's X account with the caption 'let's go, Lionesses'. Let's go, @Lionesses! 🏴 — The Prince and Princess of Wales (@KensingtonRoyal) July 27, 2025 As Caldentey's header found the net in the 25th minute, William and Charlotte were pictured with their heads in their hands and crowds in fan zones across England fell silent as they watched proceedings. Before kick-off, supporters waved England flags and loudly sang the national anthem at Boxpark Croydon and star striker Michelle Agyemang's former team, Brandon Groves Community Club in Essex. Agyemang, 19, who had one England cap before the tournament, scored crucial equalisers in the Lionesses' quarter-final and semi-final comebacks. Ahead of the game, 11-year-old Violet Ingram, a left winger for Brandon Grove Emeralds, said: 'Seeing her (Agyemang) and the team just makes me feel like I can do anything I want to do.' Lionesses fans stood on their feet while some children said 'come on England' after Russo's header put England on level terms. The Prince of Wales, who is patron of the Football Association (FA), applauded the national anthem as he stood next to Charlotte in the stadium. In a show of support ahead of the final, the Band of the Grenadier Guards performed Three Lions on the Buckingham Palace forecourt, while the royal family's official X account posted: 'Wishing the very best of luck to the @Lionesses in the Women's Euro Final this evening.' Let's go girls!! 💪🦁⚽️ Wishing the very best of luck to the @Lionesses in the Women's Euro Final this evening. — The Royal Family (@RoyalFamily) July 27, 2025 Meanwhile, BBC Sport and ITV have secured the broadcasting rights for the Women's World Cup 2027, meaning the tournament will remain free-to-air for UK viewers. England's path to the final has been marked by late drama. They sealed their spot with a last-gasp extra-time win over Italy, following a penalty shootout victory against Sweden in the quarter-finals after nearly crashing out in extra time. The Lionesses will be looking for redemption against Spain, who edged them 1-0 in the 2023 Women's World Cup final. England boss Sarina Wiegman said the team is 'going to do everything we can to win it' and she would prefer to avoid a 'nerve-wracking' match.

England crowned Euro 2025 champions after beating Spain on penalties
England have retained their European title after beating Spain 3-1 on penalties in the Euro 2025 final. The Lionesses went down in the first half after a header by Spain's Mariona Caldentey in the 25th minute, but they pulled it back with a goal from her Arsenal teammate Alessia Russo to finish the match 1-1 following extra time. They then went on to beat the world champions after a tense penalty shoot-out, with Chloe Kelly firing in the winner. England fans had watched on nervously as they once again found themselves behind in a crucial Euros tie. Fans draped in England flags joined the Prince of Wales and his daughter, Princess Charlotte, in holding their heads in their hands as Caldentey put Spain 1-0 up in the final on Sunday. A nervous atmosphere transformed into a jubilant one at Boxpark Croydon as Russo's header found the net, with England flags being waved and supporters hugging each other during the celebrations. Fans across the country watched nervously as the Lionesses then took to the penalty spot, but they came out on top, beating Spain 3-1. Hannah Hampton made several spectacular saves in the shootout before Kelly netted the dramatic winner after Sama Paralluelo's miss. This was the Lionesses' third major consecutive final - and the third time they have faced Spain this year. England were the last team to defeat Spain earlier this year at Wembley, but they played again in June, and then the Lionesses lost a tight contest. This was the first time a Women's World Cup final has been repeated in the following Women's Euros, according to UEFA. However, it has happened the other way round, with Germany beating Sweden in the Euros, followed by the World Cup in 2001.
