'Coronation Street' star Michael Le Vell was rushed to hospital for treatment after having a bad fall.

According to Digital Spy, the actor, who plays mechanic Kevin Webster in the soap, broke several ribs when he fell awkwardly during a charity football match.

The actor was reportedly stretched off the pitch wearing an oxygen mask after he collided with another player.

Le Vell spent several hours in a local casualty department, because it was feared that he may have punctured a lung in the incident.

A 'Coronation Street' insider reportedly said: "Michael was in hospital for hours. He managed to come to work on Monday, but he was very sore and had the next day off."
