    This one for me, just for how easy and hamrlessly it happens, and the sheer horror and pain on his face afterwards :(

    That's how Riise protects his house from intruders.

    Limb breaking free kicks!

    I was at that Coventry game when Dave Busst got that horrible injury. Couldn't see how bad it was, but they were throwing buckets of water over the 6-yard box, there must have been blood. I'll never forget how Peter Schmeichal had to leave and run up to the dug-out, it looked as if he was going to be sick.

    As another poster said, if you see footage it's actually hard to see how it happens, but if you do an image search you can see it properly. That one wins hands down for me.

    Again not Soccer but horrifying I think. I've has the Stress Fracture on my shin which caused this but I stopped when it got sore, and seemingly with very good reason.

    OK, Horror story...

    I was playing U-14 rugby for my school against Templeogue. After a ruck i was in i heard this scream, a horrific scream, everyone stopped... A kid had his sack ripped open. By someone's studs.

    No joke. White shorts... Covered in blood. But we played on after he got in the ambulence. I dunno why.

    As for this thread, Henrik Larsson. Sick.

    I think we can add Eduardo to this list. Horrible, horrible, horrible.

    Playing rounders in Primary School and some poor bastard was behind the batter. Took a wallop of the tennis racket as the dude took off on a guaranteed homer.

    Gash above his eye as wide as a two bit whores fanny, and twice as deep.

    Blood everywhere.

    He had a lovely shiner for a good month afterwards.

    that happened to me except it was a hurley stick, nearly lost my eye

    Probably worse. They won't show it again though.

    I wasn't even paying attention when it happened, still a bit hungover. Then I saw the red card and sighed, then I saw Fabregas's reaction and knew it was very serious then.

    Terrible to see

    I read that Eduardo had a horrible injury this afternoon and they wont show a reply ?! Thats the first Ive heard of them doing that, is it a new tactic ?

    So nasty injuries in this thread but nothing compares to this:eek::eek::eek:

    And he was back training within a week? Many of the so called soccer hard men are wimps compared to the guy, what a legend!

    Thats hockey for you. Where else can someone be punished for a "foul" and at the same time his opponent can be punished for diving. They take no sh*t.

    Not meaning to make little of it, but at the end of the day it was a cut, a very serious one but a cut none the less. Most likely a clean one. Clean cuts heal very fast.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,968 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Fair point Stekelly, of course it's easier to recover from this than a leg break which is common in football. But it definitly takes serious mental toughness to get back on the rink after that.

    Yeah, tbh I'd say the worst part was looking down at his own blood spreading on the ice (you'd be surprised how small an amount of blood can look like a huge pool) and thinking to himself he could actually die.

    It happened a guy last weekend and he's out for a lot longer. Imagine getting your throat slashed by a knife (this is every bit as bad) and being back training within the week. Obviously it wouldn't have a huge impact on your body as a whole but I reckon I'd be looking at the bigger picture. A carotid artery being cut is no little thing.

    Eduardo's injury can be seen here:

    Its difficult to see as Sky wont show replays but the urgency of Fabregas and the physio is terrifying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,097 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    21 min: Apologies for not watching the football for a couple of minutes - it's basically a training session anyway - but I've just seen a picture of Taylor's challenge, and it is completely and utterly disgraceful. Flying through the air studs up, he lunges in halfway up the shin of Eduardo's standing leg. The striker's leg clean snaps at a right angle; no wonder Fabregas was holding his head in his hands the minute he saw it. It's going to be an ethical dilemma for sports editors across the country, is this picture.

    youch.
