[Bonjour]

Could I have a brief description before I watch please?

I am a little squeamish.

The attacker is closing down the keeper and the keeper kicks the players leg (shin) instead of the ball and snaps the players leg from the shin down..

It involves someone breaking their leg pretty badly. No blood though. Makes your eyes water though.

Amazing how Djibril Cisse is still playing at the highest level after suffering two injuries just like that. As well as getting over it physically, mentally it must be twice as hard.

From some of their reactions, you would have thought he was dead.

That was grim.

Was it the contact with the keeper's boot or the way he landed?

 

[spur_souljah]

I think its the keepers boot coz they were both trying to get the ball with no-one retreating at a quick pace, infact his broken leg doesnt make connection with the ground..
