The Brazilian wanted to dribble past Luciano Sánchez with a 1-0 lead. When he wanted to pass him, Marcelo unintentionally landed on the leg of the Argentine defender of Argentinos Juniors.
Knee dislocated
The defender immediately cried out. For a moment it looked like he had broken his leg. Finally, after examination in the hospital, it turned out that his knee was dislocated. Sánchez will probably have to rehabilitate between 8 and 12 months.
Marcelo immediately realized how serious the situation was, received a red card and watched with emotion as Sánchez was carried off the field. Then he left the field in tears.
Marcelo responded afterwards on social media. “Today I experienced a very difficult moment on the field. I accidentally injured a colleague badly. I want to wish you the best possible recovery, Luciano Sánchez. All the strength in the world!”
Please note: the images can be experienced as shocking.
