Warning before you watch: This really is a horrible one. i've learnt my lesson and know not to watch these. curiosity will probably get the better of me and i'll immediately regret it. like the one of that skier that basically got split in half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a poorly timed tackle from Sanchez that caused the entire incident in the first place, at worst you can accuse Marcelo of not getting out of the way of a late lunge safely enough in the quarter of a second he had to think about it but there’s no way at all he set out to injure an opponent. We must be watching different videos, it was a deliberate stamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how, given that doesn't lift his leg more than 3-4 inches off the ground, Marcelo could expect the opposition player to put his leg exactly in that small pocket of created space. He puts his weight on it, sure, but if that's a deliberate stamp he must have spatial an temporal awareness that borders on precognition. And he's not even looking at the leg in question when it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bones take ages, as do knee ligaments. Looks possibly life altering at first glance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you only watch the close up then maybe, but the wide angle paints a clearer picture. This is just one of those things that would be described as a ‘racing incident’ in motorsports. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
